I agree. In fact, the stock UI that comes with MPlayer is light and works very well.

I would *like* to like Canola, but it has some things that prevent me from using it.

1) It's heavy and slow to load/react
2) It takes over the entire screen and acts like an OS in itself
3) The inertial scrolling of songs is cool, but sometimes when trying to scroll I accidentally select a song, which can be annoying. It would be better if there were discreet 'play' buttons for each song, making scrolling incident free.
4) Video playing leaves a lot to be desired

YARR!
