Whamb Audio Player Shares Via Rendezvous

Stéphane Thiell writes, "I just released an update of Whamb, a little shareware CD/MP3/OGG player for Mac OS X 10.2. It's not as advanced as iTunes, though it now has playlists sharing using Rendezvous. A friend even wrote a tool in Perl which allows to run playlists server on POSIX systems." Nifty. It's still in development, but works pretty well. I've got the Perl daemon running too, with some local modifications. The Rendezvous support has some scalability issues with my 25GB of MP3s, which maybe why iTunes still doesn't have it ...

    Unfortunately, the installation procedure isn't drag & drop. I pretty much expect that in any application I'd be willing to pay for. It could be done easily with Whamb as far as I can see. If they really want to store the skins in the ~/Library they should do that on first run. Personally, I think they should store them in the application package.
