VERSION 2.0-alpha1

  FEATURES:

    * Amarok defaults to using the standard music storage location of the

      desktop environment.

    * LastFM: Now using the new and improved 1.2 protocol.

    * New Service Framework: Common framework for integrated services. A new

      framework for adding the content of online services directly into Amarok

      in a consistent and well integrated way. All services are plugins and can

      be enabled or disabled form the new service config screen. Services that

      are not loaded will not degrade performance or increase memory usage.

      The service frameworks also offers for free, or makes it very simple to

      add features such as cached albumcover downloads, searching and filtering

      to the individual services. Services can also be track providers, meaning

      that if amarok recieves a url that one of the services knows how to

      handle, they will be presented with all the metadata that the servie can

      provide.

    * Magnatune.com store: Support for purchases using Magnatune gift cards

    * Magnatune.com store: Support for the upcoming Magnatune.com stream and

      download memberships, allowing uninterrupred streaming at higher quality

      and free unlimited downloads respectively.

    * Magnatune.com store: Add stream selection to the Magnatune service config,

      allowing the selection of mp3, ogg or lo-fi mp3 streams, and make ogg the

      default

    * Jamendo.com service: Add new Jamendo service that allows for direct

      streaming and (using the default bit torrent client) downloads.

    * Mp3Tunes.com service: A service for streaming music from a personal

      Mp3Tunes.com locker has been added.

    * Ampache service: A new ampache plugin has been built on top of the service

      framework. Together with a recent version of Ampache, this allows the

      seamless integration of content from one or more Ampache servers directly

      into Amarok

    * OPML Directory service: A simple podcast directory service has been added

    * Shoutcast service: The shoutcast list from previous versions of Amarok has

      been reimplemented as a service.

    * Scriptable Service Manager: Add support for writing simple services using

      scripts. This allows quick prototyping of services as well as the

      integration and distribution of community created services. The scripted

      service can be started and stopped from the service manager. Also add 2

      simple demo scripts.

    * Playlist Framework: The Playlist Browser can now contain

      Playlists/Podcasts/Streams from any mediadevice/service/collection in

      addition to local files. Playlists are accessible by any Amarok subsystem

      and scripts.

  CHANGES:

      benefits such as propper filtering and sorting, automatic downloads and

      caching of albums cover.

    * Podcast fetching uses the new QXmlStreamReader with incremental parsing.
