Code a Music Manager (Part 2)

Haiku includes a audio player application called MediaPlayer, however Haiku currently has no open source music manager or jukebox application. A music manager that takes advantage of Haiku's unique attribute system to sort and filter songs would be very powerful.

The application should be able to filter music by song, artist, album, year of release, genre, mood and user rating.

There are a few prototypes that already exist on Haiku, so your first task is to test these applications to see if any of the code is usable or if we need to start from scratch. Report back here the status of each application and what you think we should do.

For Part 2 of this program, you will need to add support for actually playing a selected music track or playlist. https://github.com/raefaldhia/MusicManager/issues/7 Add code to be able to read the audio tags and display them and any cover art. https://github.com/raefaldhia/MusicManager/issues/8 Also write code to implement support for showing more attributes in the list, see https://github.com/raefaldhia/MusicManager/issues/9
