Rhythmbox 0.8.1 brings a few important fixes and some updated translations. Now...some things I forgot to mention in the 0.8.0 release notes:

In the 0.8 series, we're using by default an entirely new set of code from GStreamer to load metadata (tags) from music files. It works very well for me, but some people have reported issues. For example, we've received reports that WMA files can hang the import process. If you encounter issues like this, please report bugs. If you want to use the old code for importing files, pass --with-metadata=monkeymedia to configure. To find problematic files, run Rhythmbox from a terminal using the --debug option and save the log.
