Actually I thought that Amarok had those already , because I saw some Amarok
user buttons(the small ones you have on kdeapps.org) on a few blogs.  A
separate Spread Amarok page could & should be created after 2.0 release
because anyway all the developers are busy now and a product I guess needs
more promotion(marketing NOT advertising) after its release than before its
release because the new people who will start using Amarok 2 may want to
tell others about the product or rather urge others to use it.With the
Windows and Mac OSX releases, Amarok 2 is no longer a cult following but
more of a product for the masses by the masses.A countdown timer for future
major releases won't be a bad idea I guess. Keep Amaroking !
