Jajuk jukebox and web radio
Beat Booth
Jajuk keeps track of your music collection and keeps the party going with a digital DJ.
Collections of all kinds tend to get cluttered as content grows. Audiophiles with several thousand songs on their hard drives are familiar with the organized disorder encountered when looking for a specific track. The extremely comprehensive Jajuk [1] software provides a solution for such situations by bringing order to a collection. Moreover, the software features a digital DJ that makes compiling playlists manually a thing of the past.
Jajuk provides a high-performance audio player based on MPlayer. The program is also designed as playback software for Internet radio. Jajuk integrates content from media platforms like Last.fm via the Internet, which makes it possible to retrieve information about artists, albums, and tracks.
