> you [can't] beat the great interface and the price

Exactly!

I was using SoundJam (the free super-annoying nag version) for my mild
MP3 playback needs...

<I mostly d/l MP3s for CDs I already _own_ rather than RIP them myself>

I've already made more playlists in 2 days with iTunes than I made with 2
months
playing with SoundJam...
