The Banshee released version 2.2 recently. Since it had been a while since I last explored Banshee on the desktop (although I have used the MeeGo flavor on a netbook), I decided to take a look — or a listen, to be more precise. On the surface, the app does not depart much from the iTunes-clone approach taken by essentially every other music app in the open source ecosystem. But Banshee is well-designed and has the potential to forge ahead in some interesting new directions.
