Jukebox Software

Peter van der Burg: /* List of jukebox software */

'''Jukebox software''' is designed to allow your PC to act and appear as a jukebox. Much like [[emulators|game emulators]], there is a GUI to enhance this effect. Jukeboxes often require you to [[CD Ripping|rip your music]] from CD's to your PC.

Software is available for several different operating systems and may or may not be freeware. Often, if the software is freeware, a donation link is present on the homepage of the software to allow you to show your appreciation for the developer's efforts in creating software that frequently rivals and/or bests commercial software!

Jukebox software may also be "skinnable", meaning the appearance of the software may be changed by the end-user based on their preferences. This may take the form of preset skins within the software, or the ability to develop and share skins with other end-users.

Lastly, touchscreens may be utilized if the software supports it, and can be used to eliminate the need for buttons or a keyboard/mouse combination altogether.

 '''''Please be aware that this may be incomplete! The individual pages will have the software's homepage for you to verify any information or questions you may have!'''''

'''Nb: Some skinning is marked in italic. These may need to been verified. Some indepth page may need to updated the skin status'''
