Rhythmbox, an integrated music management application, originally inspired by Apple's iTunes and designed to work well under the GNOME desktop environment, is now at version 2.98.

Rhythmbox 2.98 brings us a little closer to the 3.x branch, but the suspense continues as the developers release another update in the 2.x branch.

Highlights of Rhythmbox 2.98:

· A new dialog for importing music into the library has been added; · A new audio CD metadata lookup library, replacing libmusicbrainz, has been added; · Transitions between album art images have been improved; · Nautilus cluebar buttons now result in the right source being selected; · The Grilo plugin has been ported to grilo 0.2 API; · Users can now search musicbrainz for album art by album and artist name; · Love/ban buttons are now visible in last.fm/libre.fm sources.

A complete changelog can be found in the official announcement. Download Rhythmbox 2.98 right now from Softpedia.
