Overview

mp3 DJ (was Capriccio) is a small audio-player application to listen to songs from several sources one after the other: load one or more CDs, mount external drives (ex. flash-drives) and drop on the app’s icon one or several folders containing audiovisual files, and watch mp3 DJ list all of the songs in a single virtual Playlist and play them continuously.

Auto-loading of music CDs dependent on System Preferences (see app preferences)
Auto-eject CDs option
Quick access to the content of the user's Music folder
Auto or manual display of videos (for audiovisual files)
Displaying of artworks and lyrics (when available)

Weak. I don't really get why there's a market for an expensive replacement to free iTunes, which incidentally orders of magnitude superior in every respect to this. It's ugly, lacking features, and barely operable. Seriously... what's it for? I'm really confused.

It's ALL about MONEY! And who KNOWS where the MONEY is going? RASPUTIN was a Monk too!

the folks behind this application are benedectine monks living in freaking bangladesh! so what if you do not like the software, they are just trying to raise money for their monastery. also, apparently they are quite involved with inter-religious dialogue, which is a good thing and something this world needs more of. i mean although i do not use the software and am not christian myself, i think people should take it a little easier on these peaceful ascetics. besides, they offer freeware applications as well, and when was the last time you met a coding monk?

This is intended to be a lightweight alternative for iTunes. All of the reviers talking about how this does not compare to iTunes, duh! It was not meant to, and iTunes is a big clunky resource hog. It does take less memory and CPU, but the interface is kind of ugly, the features limited and although it is advertised as shareware it is in fact a time limited demo. I appreciate the effort, I sent them money, then erased this anyway. Cog and SoundApp ReBorn are both better, and free. I am still wishing XMMS worked natively and well in OS X... Oh, well.

Made for social/religious causes Wrong place for bashing

Just a quick mention that the version 1.5 that was linked here is a PowerPC version. It would seem the developer has just spotted this, and has pulled the file from the server. Hopefully he'll put a Universal Binary version up there soon.

After visiting the Webpage I realised they're making apps for Religious causes and not for profit, so I think they should be supported. In my opinion the comments are not very fair especially when you consider that the developer is a Monk.

Really poor app! I can't understand why it has been made for... BTW someone should mail the author about a program called "itunes", done by an obscur company called "Apple". Everyone should visit the author's homepage, there are bunch of useless programs like this one, always shareware...

and the award for "most pointless creation of a commercial app which offers less features than the corresponding free app" goes to...

I'm all for supporting third party developers, but this program is a joke. Why would I want to spend 10 dollars on a program that is buggy, looks terrible, and has very few features. I mean if it was at least comparable to iTunes, I might consider buying it for 5 dollars. This developer needs to at least make it free until it can stand up to iTunes.

Let check out what's new: Version 1.4.4: Some .mp3 files wouldnt show the Artist tag: fixed. And you get that for $10?

There zip (archive) file is corrupted and will not expand. So until this is corrected, you can't open the zip file.

What is this supposed to be, Foobar for the mac? This like amateur night with RealBasic. Get this outta here! Anyone who pays ten dollars for this must be clinically mad.

I'm sorry, but iTunes makes the idea of charging for a 3rd party mp3 player absolutely ridiculous. Anyone who thinks that it's reasonable to make a shareware mp3 player for Mac OSX needs to be slapped with a fish.

I installed this and tried it out. I found it useful to install on a headless mac because it will auto-play and auto-eject (audio CD and data CD/DVD with quicktime files). iTunes cannot auto-eject. Also, where iTunes is bloated, this is simple. It doesn't replace iTunes, but I find it useful.

"Lists all songs and plays them one after the other. (Shareware)" - hmmm.. you mean like iTunes but without the extras? Wow! where's my credit card?Gorgeous icon too. Next please..

Oh yeah... and "in such case (common for those still using old PCs which do not support iTunes and the like) you may be forced to select and playback only a song at a time." Um...this program supports OS 10.3 and higher. Where would you be in a situation where a computer couldn't use iTunes that's running OS 10.3? My Bondi Blue iMac 233MHz was running OS X and ran iTunes fine. If something couldn't support OS X anyway you wouldn't be able to run iTunes. And this program is only supported by OS 10.3 and later. That logic makes no sense.

fun for a programming project at school to be able to duplicate iTunes most popular features (play music) but it is useless... don't see why it becomes a shareware when iTunes is free and bugless...

Thank you for pointing out, WHOCARES742, the freeware-to-shareware switcheroo. And yet mp3Player 1.2.1 is still listed here at MacUpdate as "License: FREE". What's up, AsramSoftware? Listen carefully and you can hear mp3Player 1.2.1 hitting the trash.

Most flagrant bug is that the Equalizer keeps reappearing whenever a new album is dropped on the well. The Equalizer doubles... DOUBLES... CPU usage. Also, it would be nice to be able to re-size the main window horizontally to accomodate long song and album names.
