Native FLAC and Ogg support, flawless playback from external hd's and my bluetooth keyboard's media controls work with playback functionality. You just have to download the keyboard media control plug in. You can CHOOSE how you want your media handled, either with a database methodology, or to have it simply SEE where your files are and read them from their current location without moving a thing, copying a thing etc.. It will simply create a library database for a reference point. And the best part ? Watched folders ! So that means when you add or remove a file it sees this and adjusts the library accordingly, without you having to do a thing. Sweet.Have fun !

Just Apple wanting to control the masses again...</blockquote>
