You can quickly and easily create customizable playlists, and organize
your music by artist, track, song, and music style. It features a
10-Band Graphic Equalizer that allows you to control the quality and
tone of your music manually or by using preset music styles: Jazz,

Compatibility
Architecture: PPC PPC (Carbonized)

System Requirements: SSW 7.6.1/Mac OS 8.1 or later, Power Macintosh
with a 603 processor at 100 MHz or faster

The Carbonized SoundJam MP v2.5.2 requires Mac OS X.

Note: The Mac OS X only, SoundJam MP v2.5.2 (DL #5) is a pre-release
version that never went gold. Casady & Greene had [sold the rights to
Apple][20] to use the code for their iTunes development before
SoundJam MP for OS X could be marketed and released to the public.

This pre-release version is time-bombed and it expired back in May,
2020.

Garden member, powermax, was able to patch the Mac OS X pre-release
and has added it to this page (DL #6).

This patched copy works fantastically. So if you are wanting to run
the Mac OS X native version of SoundJam MP, you need to grab DL's #5
and #6 and you'll be good to go.
