Cordially invited to the beta release of FoxyTunes v3.5

Monday, February 2nd, 2009

Hey everyone, today we’re very happy to announce the beta release of FoxyTunes for Firefox v3.5.

Get FoxyTunes for Firefox v3.5 Beta.

We added a ton of improvements to this next release – we’ve made the controls smarter, updated the default skin and improved the menus so that you can do what you want faster and easier. Even though monitors are getting bigger and cheaper we wanted to ensure that FoxyTunes remains compact and useful.


FoxyTunes

In total we made over 20 improvements, additions, and tweaks to this version of FoxyTunes (click here for a full list), here are just a few examples:

Better player switching

In order to make using multiple players more seamless we’ve added a quick switch menu that lets you jump to other players, pauses your previous player, and shows you which player you’re currently listening to. We’ve also combined the show/hide buttons into the quick switch button so that easy access is just a toggle away.

Player support updates

We’ve added support for Firefox version 3.1, the latest version of VLC, and the latest version of the foobar2000 player. FoxyTunes is also being smart about the players we show in the “Select Player” menu by only showing ones you’ve installed. The full list of supported players is still accessible under the “more” menu.

Smart + Simple = Better

The big themes of this release are smarter and simpler. We’ve put a lot of hard work and thought into how to improve buttons, menus, how players are controlled, and how we can blend the power of FoxyTunes with a streamlined design.

We’re very excited about this release and wanted to share it with you a little early. Check it out here and let us know what you think!

Update: We’ve fixed a few things relating to Wordpress and Signatunes. Have a look and let us know what else you find. :)

FoxyTunes Planet – private beta is here

Tuesday, January 16th, 2007

FoxyTunes LogoAs you all know, FoxyTunes is a universal music browser add-on that supports more than 30 great media players and music services – iTunes, Winamp, Pandora, Rhapsody and Amarok are only a few examples and the list is always growing.

With FoxyTunes, you can have the same music experience no matter which music player you’re using. FoxyTunes gives you the freedom to use your favorite players from within your favorite browser and does all the integration work behinds the scenes.

We took the same principles of integration and universality to a completely new level by creating a new Web site – we’re calling it the “FoxyTunes Planet”.

FoxyTunes PlanetFoxyTunes Planet is a Universal Music Mashup. The Planet, along with the FoxyTunes browser add-on connects between your favorite media players and great music sites and services.

Today we are launching the Planet in an invitation-based private beta. It’s not public yet for two reasons – first, we want to make sure that the new site can handle the load of all the FoxyTunes users. Also, we want to get your feedback and make additional improvements before publicly launching the new site.

Currently, we are inviting a limited number of FoxyTunes users to the private beta. If you’d like to join the private beta and help us shape the next generation of FoxyTunes – sign up here.

Much more to come soon – stay tuned! :)

FoxyTunes Planet coming soon!
