Banshee, the next best thing to Linux iTunes

I want an audio player that will do everything that Apple's iTunes does..... including working with my iPod ..... and do it natively on Linux. That's a tall order. I've tried many fine Linux programs..... KDE's amaroK, RealPlayer 10 for Linux, Xine, etc. .... but none have scratched my itch.

You people are on crack or have some messed up config, Banshee takes up between 34Mb and 62Mb of res memory(depending on the track) and not even 1% of cpu time, but this is more lightly to do with mono. Come on people it's developed by one person and already has great features and plugins.

AmaroK takes 43Mb res memory, been in developement for alot longer and has more developers working on it.

SUSE 10.1
