• A mixed blessing - crippled trialware

  Summary

  This is definitely an improvement over managing the Dell DJ with MusicMatch Pukebox, with the following caveats: 1) The trial version is crippled. If you want to sync or transfer files, be prepared to fork over 20 bones 2)In order for Dudebox to work, it must be running in the background - consumes about 9-10MB of RAM on my machine 3)It allows you to edit tag information for files directly on the DJ, but if you edit something such as the album, when you sync with files on your hard drive, Dudebox thinks the file you edited is different from the one on your PC, so the same song shows up as not being synced when it actually is. This makes the tag editing features a bit useless if you use the sync function - best to edit all the files on your PC before transferring. Other than that, this program is definitely recommended, as it makes transferring files from the DJ and back to the PC a snap.

• If you own the Dell Jukebox, get this

  Summary

  Anyone that owns the jukebox (which I think is a great product) needs to pay the 25 and get this. Musicmatch is horrible. Dudebox lets you quickly and easily maintain files and playlists on your jukebox. It's important to me to have an accurate and up to date representation of my music library on the jukebox and dudebox enables that. I tried to suffer through for a few days without it when my jukebox came in and ended my pain shortly thereafter. Don't prolong yours.
