Nightingale was forked from songbird http://getnightingale.com/ I was
a very keen songbird user at one point, but stopped using it when they
discontinued linux support. Don't think it really lived up to its
promise in the end (some potential for nice playlist support, this was
also when I was more involved in music metadata which is something
songbird could have done well).
