I really like the S2P/S2U2 combo to, my only issue with S2P is (at least from what I can tell) no way to minimize S2P and use other apps.

Iv tried Nitrogen and while I think its a nice little player, the fact it does not support album art yet is kinda a bummer and at least for me very buggy, not ready for prime time. Im hopeful though for future versions.

worth every penny
Iv been thinking of buying a second battery for when I know ill be away from a power outlet for to long.

There has to be a way to measure power usage while running programs though. I still think it would be useful info for everyone to know which music apps will give you the best battery life.
