Sonora: the most interesting alternative to iTunes

Many readers will have noticed that I recently look to the various music players, looking for an alternative iTunes. "Tuna" has long been the presence of excessive straining functionality: storage of books, movies, applications, documents, etc. - all this is the least you expect to see in a player.

Sonora - fresh and, in my opinion, the most interesting alternative to iTunes. Player friendly with virtually all music formats including flac, ape, aiff and ogg.

User interface - a very brave; Many even say that the authors of the experiments were far too controversial. But at least someone offers a fresh look at familiar things.

The left side of the window there is a column with a list of artists. On the right side - their albums, which you can sort by popularity and novelty. Right in the window title displays the tracks that follow the current song. In this list, you can drag other songs to form the active playlist literally "on the fly".

One of the interesting features of Sonora, I would point search performed in the style of Alfred, and integration with last.fm.

Sonora is currently in beta stage, many things in the player is not enough. The most notable disadvantages of the current version: no songs rating ( "stars") and the inability to sort the library by genre. However, an interesting project, hopefully. Let's follow him.

Download Sonora you can official site.
