Version 0.9 of foobar2000 has been released (no idea when, since the changelog doesn’t have any dates, not even years). Looks like support for Windows 95/98/ME and NT4 has been dropped.
I wonder if 0.8 should be uninstalled prior to installing this. Can’t find any quick answers, so I think I’m gonna. Also wonder whether the Audioscrobbler plugin has been updated to work with this.
Update: Looks like it has, and there’s a 0.9-compatible version of AMIP, as well! Yi-pee!

“I joined the Yahoo Publisher Network, a beta program through which Yahoo provides text ads in much the same way that Google does. I started running the Yahoo text ads on many of my web sites.
A couple of days ago Yahoo sent me a notice stating they’d revised their Publisher Policy. Item ’11.l’ stated that I will not “display all or part of the Ad Unit to any user located outside the US”. In other words, I can’t allow users outside of the United States to view my pages if there is a Yahoo ad on the page!”
Further proof for my “Yahoo is evil” case.
