Well mark I use 1.1.7 everyday and if you would like 577 (according to 
Amarok that is 1 day and 18 hours) smoothjazz.mp3 let me know.
Hence, the reason for I would like an alarm clock timer.
None of these crash with xine-lib, alsa and oss and libvisual and of 
course Amarok

If you you want to get them yourself - grab "streamripper".  I could 
email the path required to download.  That easy!

Need a tester - send it on  -
