Mufin releases a new standalone music player

Mufin has released a new standalone music player designed to compete with Apple’s new iTunes Genius feature. The Mufin player imports all the music off your hard drive onto it and then provides your standard music player, except with Mufin you can also check out related tracks. Mufin currently doesn’t have an integrated way to purchase music, so if you find a track you want to buy you’ll have to hit up iTunes or Amazon to purchase it, which brings up the question of why you weren’t using iTunes in the first place. Regardless it’s nice to see some competition out there, even if it’s a little sub-par at the moment. What features would you like to see in a music player? [via ArsTechnica]
