David, How about my two requirements:
1. Organising of the media library (renaming files/folders etc). (this one I can live without) 2. 'Score' or 'Skip Count' tracking - In Banshee I have a smart playlist which automatically ignores songs I skip frequently, so my random playlist is generated from songs that I listen to more often. I'm still tempted to give it a good go anyway, but #2 is something I really love in Banshee.
