Have been using 0.24 for many hours now and it is all going very
smoothly, no major problems to speak of except not being able to add
various artist CDs easily.
Any chance you could add an album browsing view to it? That would
solve all my problems and I could quit bugging you!! :)

One thing I have noticed is the minimise to tray button is one of the

I wonder if this is an issue of newer releases or has to do with the
fact that I recently updated from a P4 to an AMD64 X2.
However, window redraw of Moose is extremely slow.

Playlists can be loaded, saved, refreshed, cleared, and edited via the
now playing window.
