After a good Music Player for my PC (like Xbox Media Center)

I have been using Xbox media center a lot and blown over by how easy to use it music library is.

Ive never been interested in this kinda tool for windows (minimalist winamp fan), but the way xbox media center does it is so straightfoward and uncluttered.

2 seperate views, library mode (with straight forward album/top 100/search buttons) and file browse mode. Automatically displays album cover and link to album info. Im not a fan of the Tree-view browsing like Media Player 9/10, and Winamps Media Library is ok but lacks file browse mode (for those files not in albums !).
Unobstrusive now playing with album thumbnail.
submits to last.fm/audioscrobber, using a plugin.

So, is there a music player (or maybe something which will work with an existing lightweight player) which has a similar media library mode ?

 

well oddly its simple windows media player 11 looks precisely the same as that and i like the look of it.

so get windows media player 11 it is good and i normaly hate ms software but im liking this one.

Nick is that from the orginal Xbox with the modified dashboard? I have a buddy that's done so, the streaming functionalites are great --- I have an old xbox, I'll have to look into it sometime in the near future.

 

Yes, it makes a great media player - streaming - I can even watch google videos and youtube

 

If you're technically inclined, I recommend Foobar2000. Requires some configuration work and you can make it pretty much however you like.
