kknopp: if by "brillant" you mean "massive, clunky, unintuitive and irritating as hell", then you are correct. Cog does not have that sort of interface, and that's why it's nowhere near the p.o.s. that iTunes has become. I don't care about the stupid iTunes Store, I don't care about iPhone syncing, I don't care about sharing playlist over the network... so I don't need any of that extra junk.
Cog does what it does very well without all the extra b.s. many of us don't need or want.
I've been looking for years, literally, for a small, low resource music player for OSX. Al the rest are either unstable, bulky, over complicated or all of the above. This little app is *perfect*. I can just drag and drop a folder full of 1000 songs and lots of subfolders and Cog plays it easily and quickly. No importing or forcing me to create playlists. If I don't want to do that, it still knows where my Music folder is without me having to tell it. It's CPU and RAM usage is tiny compared to that beast iTunes. Cog even knows to listen to my MacBook Pro's remote, and the music player keys on the new mac keyboards. This rocks.
Bye bye iTunes, I don't need your fat @$$ anymore, and I won't miss you at all.
