Playlists are a useful way to organize your digital music... if you have only a few hundred songs. Once you have thousands of tunes, it becomes a chore to modify playlists to suit changing tastes / moods. Also, playlists become completely impractical when you have to suit the musical tastes of various household members.
JukeBx changes this. It builds playlists in the background that it creates based on how you, and nine other users, rate the tune. Thus, you can hear the music that you like most more than the music that you feel is just OK, giving you variety without forcing you to vary your playlists.
Furthermore, up to ten programmable patterns can be set so everyone can hear music they like equally. (Or unequally if you set it that way!) JukeBx supports most media files, including most video types, and tunes can be imported from playlists, directories or simply by file. JukeBx may also be used as a playlist generator if you like another player but dislike the selection ability.
