Phelix's ... costs $19 for the full version.-sajman99 (June 27, 2009, 05:22 PM)
purchase includes 30-day e-mail support and free updates for 1 year.-Phonome Labs
Program design of Phelix obliges to concurrent computing paradigm. This is done to get computing power from MultiCore CPU PC systems. User can control the level of concurrency. Performance: 4 audio executions per seconds on AMD Opteron 270 (DualCore) in 1 thread mode, or 7 audio executions per seconds in 2 threads mode (memory consumption: approximately 40MB of RAM for 1000 songs).
Classical audio tags matcher operates on OGG and MP3 files. Music-tags matcher has a very long history and has evolved continuously.
Supported strategies are: Strict Tags strategy, Less Strict Tags strategy. Loose Tags strategy, and [Artist, Song] strategy. Matching can operate in incremental mode. In this mode, user can work on so-far collected duplicates while the matcher processes are in progress.
Program automatically chooses which duplicates will be moved out and which one will be kept. Decision is ruled by 'keep-file-criteria'. Criteria is controlled by user and can include comparisons of: file type, file length, bit rate, song length, number of songs in folder and file creation time. User can manually overrule the program decisions.
Program automatically detects distrusted groups of duplicates. Detection criteria is based on song length deviation and can be controlled by user. Distrusted groups of duplicates can be separated from trusted.
Files are never deleted by this tool, they are removed to the destination directory. Undo remove operation is supported (if removed files are not deleted by user).
Achieved knowledge about the scanned music can be persistently saved in Phelix's library repository. Stored information will be retrieved from repository when needed to skip the re-execution of jobs that have already been executed in previous runs of application.
Wizards and contextual menu (right-click) are supported to ease the application usage.

MetaPad: Light Notepad Replacement
There are all kinds of Notepad replacements out there, and it makes perfect sense why. Notepad is one of those apps that people use because it starts fast, is lightweight, and for most purposes it does what you need it to. And then there are other solutions out there like Notepad++, Notepad2, and many others. For some people even those can be overkill though.
That’s where Metapad comes in. This app just celebrated it’s 10-year anniversary, which means it’s been around the block and back again. It’s withstood the test of time, and yet there are still all kinds of people who swear by this app… and rightfully so. Metapad isn’t meant to be some all-powerful Notepad replacement. Instead its focus remained on staying small in size, but adding features that could be incredibly useful in daily use. This includes things like:
* Persistent window placement
* Dirty file notification
* Intelligent Find and Replace
* External viewer support (e.g. web browser)
* Usable accelerator keys (Ctrl+S, Ctrl+N, etc.)
* Dual customizable font support
* Optional Quick Exit (Esc key)
* Configurable tab stop setting
* Auto-indent mode
* Go to Line/Column
* Seamless UNIX text file support
* Block indent and unindent (Tab, Shift+Tab)
* Recent files list
* No file size limit! (under Win9x)
* Hyperlink support
So how small is this app? The executable weighs in under 100KB, which is pretty incredible. You have to keep in mind though that this app was developed before broadband had started to take off, and so it had to be quick to download over a modem. With that being said if you’re looking for a VERY light Notepad replacement you should definitely give this a shot.

Let's Fix Outlook
After the apparent success twits had in forcing AT&T to change their iPhone upgrade policy, a group calling themselves the Email Standards Project, backed by CampaignMonitor and other email-marketers, is trying to use Twitter to convince Microsoft to change how Outlook renders HTML.
Outlook's broken - Let's fix it
http://fixoutlook.org/
After reading many of the early comments at fixoutlook.org, my impression is that many people think using Word to render HTML is something new in Outlook 2010. It's not, it was introduced in Outlook 2007."It's not about you. It's mostly about the designers and developers having to cobble together hack included versions of already standards compliant collateral."- an email marketer to a user who said he has yet to receive anything useful / interesting / serious in a "pretty" CSS-ified email.
That's right, FixOutlook.org is not about fixing areas where Outlook is broken (and there are many) - its solely about making it easier for email marketers to design email so that it has all the bells and whistles found on web pages and works perfectly in all email clients.
Few regular users complain about the lack of CSS support in Outlook. I see many more complaints from users about double spacing when sending mail to recipients using web clients and the lack of support for animated GIFs.
Focusing on the end-user experience is more important. Fix what's really broken so end users, not email marketers, can be more productive. To that end, I've set up this forum so everyone can share what they'd really like to see fixed in Outlook 2010.
