            Re: The Youtube Game

            Good. May or may not suit your taste?

            But I find it a lot better than the winamps or iTunes (or clones thereof).

                Excellent.

                As you know I run Linux/open source on my comps. That does sometimes come with some carp. But most of the time it comes from people who care about the the apps they develop from a user perspective.

                Clementine? It's not perfect. But if you have an issue, then you can go and ask the guy in charge about it. Add a feature. Fix/this/that, whatever.

                  Re: The Youtube Game

                  I might switch one day, or at least load it on a lappy and still have my win7 lappy for programming etc? I bet with you around I'll be bugging you all day for help though - but I use linux servers and wouldn't touch Windows so I dunno why, on my actual system I do the opposite.

                  Sod it I will clear a lappy next week and load linux on it. Try and do what you do and have a 100% open source lappy

                  Thanks mate, expect a new thread with 500 questions next week - I'll be your little 'linux disciple'

                    Good. Try it. I don't mind answering questions.

                    Go with ubuntu. A bit like the MS of the linux world, but there is best userbase/help forums. Or perhaps OpenSuse.

                    One of the main differences I see with linux is the speed and memory consumption. This lappy on windows is painfully slow. On linux it's fast and uses 1/3 of the memory on boot. I do sorta acknowledged the improvements in windows7, bit even still in terms of hard disk and memory usage it is still a hog.

                        It even fades in the end/start of a new song - little things like that make such a difference

                          It just gives you something more analogous to a windows desktop in look an feel from the start?

                            As said, it's developed by a music fan rather than a team of corporate bods. Makes all the difference

                            + you can change that in the options

                              Nice, I'll load it next week and see what it looks like. My lappy is full of site stuff as I have just finished the 21st domain

                              So I was planning on wiping it anyway as I only have 12Gb left

                              I guess this will use less resources as well?
