If you ever used the older Amarok, you will feel immediately at home with Clementine. Porting to QT4 has two advantages, not only does it mean that Clementine can run on modern distros without needing older libraries, but QT4 is also available for Windows and MacOS X, so Clementine is now truly cross-platform. What was far less inevitable was that the porting project would reach the stage of a usable release, but that is exactly what Clementine has done. Being open source, it was almost inevitable that someone would take the Amarok 1.4 source code and begin porting it to QT4.

In this environment it is better to change the default configuration by going in `Tools -> Preferences -> Behavior and then uncheck Keep running in background`.Some people were disappointed when Amarok 2.0 was released, it had changed a lot from the tried and trusted 1.4 and not to everyone's liking.
