Hey thanks atreiu, this is great. One thing though, maybe on an update or something, but do you think that you could add the download function for downloading the songs like it does on the Tagoo and SeeqPod search engines? That would be awesome. Thanks and much appreciated

I'm sorry, the download feature you are referring to, is actually not a feature of the Search-Addons, but a build-in feature of songbird. It depends on the website, you are visiting, not on the search or addons you are using.

Usually, there have to be direct links to media files on the website, so songbird can find them. Playlist.com uses a custom flash player instead, so Songbird can't find the media files. The only thing you can do, is to ask the Playlist.com - Crew, if they could make their site compatible to songbird.

Hi, somehow I am unable to remove this addon. It IS uninstalling from the addons pane, but it still remains as an option in my search area.

@deOmega: You have to uninstall it through "Manage Search Engines" (in drop-down menu of the search button), too. Afaik this is the default behavior for all search-engine add-ons, but yes, it's strange. You could file a bug for this, if you want... :-)

Hi atriu.. I'm wondering if you can do a simple but great extension. I'm talking about do a notiefer for the new Ubuntu 9.10 Notification System... The only that the extension have to do is read artist info and album picture. The other is just send console code. There is some help lines...

@sironitomas: Sorry, I don't even have a working Ubuntu system. My old Laptop can't run it, because of its cheap graphics chip :-(

Hi! I don't understand what for this add-on?! Anybody can add this search engine to Songbird without it easily!
Only to do:
- load homepage (http://www.playlist.com or http://www.playlist.com/search),
- then click on the Search Engine button,
- and choose [Add "playlist.com Music Search"] from the bottom.
That's it!

Wasn't implemented by playlist.com the time I wrote this for Carson ;)

I personally don't need any of these search add-ons, because even if the Website doesn't support the search, I can easily create the opensearch.xml by using this tool: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/
