First of all Rhythmbox was still Gnome default audio player and Totem video player last time I checked, second I am regular user of both and actually find them pretty usable *and* efficient and third, but not last, banshee is pulling in mono stuff, which is first a bit controversial (a really tiny bit, mostly caused by the fact that C# was developed by a certain company that people in *nix world don't usually have pleasant tea parties with) and second, most importantly, for the Desktop Live Spin it's another ~30 MiB worth of packages... Also from what I read, it also joins the functionality of video and audio players... Well, while there is some non-zero intersection of those, I don't quite like having it both managed by one app. That's not how gnome apps usually do it. > Kind regards, > David Nielsen Martin
