From the wikipedia page for the program:
One has to wonder though: can 3 bytes actually be heard in a wav file
that produces 180.000 bytes per second?
The answer is a definitive yes, and if you are (un)lucky, they may
just blow your speakers too. And I presume by 180,000 bytes per second
they mean 176,400.
Since it is a ruby application, presumably it wouldn't even be
possible to have a binary for it if you wanted one (or is it mixed
ruby/c?).
It does look like an interesting application, but their alogorithms
are either very naively implemented or the wikipedia page explains
them poorly.
Another happy Amarok user here. I always fix the
tags with Easytag
before adding them to the collection. With proper tags the search works
perfectly. Easytag can fetch tags from cddb also, and rename files from
tags.
If only Amarok had a replay gain function like fb2k I reckon it would be
perfect. It does take over half an hour to scan my 10000 tracks, but
hey, you only need to do that once.

I also think that amarok is great, but I have a very fast computer. I
don't fix tags with easytag (but I do think that it's a great program),
I rip with rubyripper and everything is ready to dump into my music
folder as is. If you folks don't know about rubyripper, please check it
out. I found out about it when I was running archlinux and I hope that
there are binaries for every distro soon. No, I am not affiliated with
rubyripper in any way.
Enjoy,
Arthur
