For anyone wondering why Songbird Portable isn't out yet, I thought I'd give you an update. The majority of the code is complete for it, however we are still sorting out code to change drive letters in the SQLite database.
Okay, everyone happy? Now, stop bugging me

Thanks Ryan, you just freed up a bunch of my time by posting this. I was about to set up a hostile takeover of the Songbird Portable project with a few other members...ok I really wasn't, I'm glad to hear its almost read, looking forward to the release

"hostile takeover"
"What about Love?" - "Overrated. Biochemically no different than eating large quantities of chocolate." - Al Pacino in The Devils Advocate
yeah i was thinking some verbal exchange would take place....we'd criticize him for not posting anything about it, and then say "pretty please can one of us take over the project?"
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
was imagining a commando style raid on Ryan's house to take his hard disk and USB drive, far more of a hostile takeover
yeah, well im in the US, not exactly close to Ryan, and in college, which means i don't have the money to fund that.
The developer formerly known as ZGitRDun8705
was an idea
I certainly have neither the money nor the time to fund it with important exams in 4 weeks 
On that note I shall get back to work...
I didn't want to see you get p\/\/nd by my Rainbow Six Vegas 2 5k!11z

Hmm, extra relieved at this note. Songbird is an app I have been eagerly waiting for (Zune & iPod).
Now, on a sidenote, does "We" in your note mean the Songbird team?
I was just thinking. Most of my apps that I worked on with the author of the app turned out not so good.

"We" = John and I

Hi,
Let me introduce myself, I'm a newb on PortableApps and since today on Songbird.
The apps made me very enthusiastic since I am a consultant and constantly changing my workplace.
I'll follow the posts.

Hello,
I'm an trainee in an italian company and I'm working on a portable songbird too.
I had a lot of problems trying to set the "application data" directory, searching deeply into Songbird sources I found that the directory is set in this file, I'm wondering if I should rebuild entire songbird to make the portable version work.
I'm working on a Mac version of this portable software (but I need it for Windows platform too) and I'm asking if I could help you on this, if you want you could send me the sources you're working on, I'll be glad to be a betatester/co-developer.
Sorry for my buggy english, 21.
Hello,
I succesfully put sb on usb-key for windows, using the "-profile" option and creating the file "user.js" (in which I put the relative path to the library db). It seems to work on any windows pc. I think I'll look for Ryan on the sb irc channel.
Sorry for my buggy english, 21.
Ryan, just letting you know, Songbird 0.6 is now out. i'm sure you're busy with your school stuff but i thought i'd mention it in case you were still working on 0.5
I was that just about the same time last night. Good to see the iPod addon rewriten, my friend was having some issues with it.
Not a rush just a note to say I'm looking forward to this being portable and thanks for doing it :o)

Is it possible to get an update on this? Also will add-ons for songbird cause any reg keys to be crated?

Sorry I'm a bit late, but here's where I'm at:
I've finished the launcher and it works. I need to upgrade to Songbird 0.6, which involves a few changes. I also need to do the AppInfo and help.html, but then I'll be ready for a public prerelease.
Thanks

actually, the latest version is now 0.6.1
Same branch

Hey Ryan,
I'm curious if when you expect to be ready?
I look forward to the pre-release
Ditto on looking forward to the Songbird Portable pre-release :o)
I think you'll have quite a few dozen testers within the first 48 hours.
