Please do. I've not used it as I found a different solution (mpd and |
| 15 |
front-ends) worked better for my needs, but going by all the reviews and |
| 16 |
etc I've seen, clementine really IS pretty much universally regarded as |
| 17 |
the modern successor to kde3's amarok, what amarok for kde4 SHOULD have |
| 18 |
been to carry on the name, while kde4's amarok is really an entirely |
| 19 |
different application in both code and usage. |

Based on all I've read, I highly doubt you'll be disappointed, and will |
| 22 |
probably wonder why you hadn't switched sooner, saving the headaches of |
| 23 |
maintaining your old amarok. =:^) |
