: Created by me (SalmonKing) with arcade cabinents in mind, simply because I couldn't find any other software that suited my needs. I released the software to a few friends, then after fulfilling most of their requests, I decided to release the software publically. Since then, I have added many requested options. I have retired from the project as at 16/08/2007, due to lack of time & motivation. Thanks to all for the support throughout the years.

Jukebox Software

2007-01-12T00:52:34Z

SalmonKing:

'''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.

==List of jukebox software==
Below is the jukebox software comparison table for '''Windows''' only, but '''Silvejuke''' may exist to Linux and Mac as well (but no download link is arviable, and '''Doscab''' is dos based.

 '''''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!'''''

: Created by me (SalmonKing) with arcade cabinents in mind, simply because I couldn't find any other software that suited my needs. I released the software to a few friends, then after fulfilling most of their requests, I decided to release the software publically. Since then, I have added many requested options, and have no intention of stopping just yet.

{{Cleanup}}

'''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.
