Um... are you an idiot too? iTunes on OS X absolutely does not play nor manage WMA files in the library. You didnt even pretend to understand my comment. VLC is not a media library manager. It only plays files just as all of the other examples you have listed. Please read carefully before you show your ignorance to the entire 20 people following this post. I mean seriously! Who's the one that needs to do research again? – Daniel Gray, on October 10, 2009 16:04

Lame as shit! There are no, I repeat, NO media library/players for OS X that support WMA. This is unbelievable, now I remember why I avoided OS X for so long; it feels like I am always settling for the lesser option. I guess I am just going to have ato learn a little Objective C and show these idiots how to do something right. – Daniel Gray, on October 10, 2009 14:52

This is specifically how I came across Songbird. I was looking for an iTunes alternative because it simply will not manage my wma files. I mean seriously what gives? I can play the files with flip4mac, quicktimeX, and within the Finder but I am just not allowed to add them to my library of mp3s and mp4s!?! WTF!

All I want is anything comparable to WMP on Windows. Let me add/manage all my media files the same way. Is that too much to ask? Am I really the only person using OSX that hates iTunes? I am totally baffled by the lack of progess on this issue since I bought a Mac 3 years ago. It's now the single biggest headache of all time.

I now download music on my Mac and then xfer it to my server where I can play it from my Windows machine. I thought technology was supposed to make things better, not annoy the absolute piss out of me.
