Has anyone tried this recently? It's pretty interesting and hasn't crashed on me so far.

there is not quite a point in putting this in the AUR, as you can run it from the users home directory. If you go with a RC, it automatically updates to the next pseudo stable release. As they put out pseudo stable releases every couple of weeks (at least the last couple of weeks ) I prefer some automatic mechanism for updating

That said, songbird is a promising app, though it eats both my cpu (30% when idle) and memory (twice firefox).

Yeah...it's kind of a fatass.

I keep getting an error saying:

**Message: don't know how to handle application/x-id3

I've searched here and on google some and found some postings saying I need the gstreamer plugins. But i've installed both gst-plugins and gstreamer0.10-plugins, but I'm still getting the error. I can play music fine in xmms, so I'm chalking this up to Songbird still being in development.
