Clementine music player gets better with Jamendo and IceCast support, smart playlists, and more
Clementine -- the upstart music player inspired by Amarok -- continues to mature into a very capable app. Recently, Clementine 0.6 was released and it added several nice new features.
For starters, Clementine now offers Jamendo and Icecast on its Internet listening tab. With thousands of Icecast streams to choose from and Jamendo's massive catalog of music (which is available everywhere in the world), you've got plenty of back-up for those times when you're a little bored with your personal library. The first time you access the Jamendo library it will take Clementine a little while to parse it, but it's well worth the wait.
The artist info tab now pulls information from a variety of sources and includes biographies, Last.fm artist tags, and photos. Clementine also lets you zoom images and save them to your desktop. Clementine's sidebar now offers more customization options, and there's a new kitten plug-in in case you grew weary of the Hypnotoad. Perhaps the best addition to the new version, however, is the option to create smart and dynamic playlists from the songs in your library.
Clementine has come a long way since we first looked at it, and it's become an excellent, cross-platform music player.
Download Clementine for Windows, Mac, or Linux

Last time you looked at it tried it. Really nice program, except a small bug. All my music is stored on a Windows Home Server, and the program prompted me that the file was unavailable (even though it played all the files fine). Anyone happen to know if this error is fixed?

@NemanjaTGG A tab bar slides down from the top when you create a new playlist. And it works fine on Windows 7.

I feel compelled to give you a golf clap for your music selection, though John the Fisherman is a better song.

78 MB of RAM just for playing an MP3? Someone's have a problem with RAM leaks...
