Responda por que o Rhythmbox foi escolhido na lista de discussão do Ubuntu Desktop
- Based upon broader community feedback, it seems the preference is RB. Now, we have to be careful with that, obviously, but we simply use that as a data point.
- Size of both projects on CD. Alone, not a deciding point, but another data point.
- Stability in core function. Banshee has many features, though the general impression is that it has stability issues with frequent crashes and hangs needing force quits. RB is known to be quite stable.
- User Experience (including usability, overall feel, responsiveness). Banshee has the edge here, though can be less responsive (UI hangs). RB has some UI challenges that were detailed in Charline's usability report.
- Speed in start up and operation. This seems mostly a draw. Tweaks can be made to Banshee to improve cold startup time, though it does have moments were it hangs mid operation, but they seem more related to overall stability.
- ARM - Big unknown for Banshee.
- GTK3 - RB is already GTK3. Banshee is almost there, but carries more risk as it would be new binding stack
