You can browse through your music collection using the nifty Cover Manager that displays the album art, download covers from various sources or let Amarok check automatically for covers in the internet.
Rating and scoring
You can show your love for the songs by rating them. Amarok supports ½⋅✩ ratings, too. In addition, Amarok can calculate a score (a sort of guessed rating) depending on metrics such as how often you listen to or skip a song.
Pop-Up Dropper
This is an innovative interface that offers contextual options (such as the ones you see in a right-click menu) that you can "drop" a song into. Grab a track and see the Pop-Up Dropper appear in the context view pane!
Configurable Playlist View
The currently loaded playlist is highly configurable and can show information about the songs in any form you like. If you are used to the Spreadsheet View found in Amarok 1.x series and other music players, you can have that, too! The Playlist View also allows you to save or export the current playlist.
Dynamic Playlists
Amarok allows you to create weighted random playlists that adhere to various criteria exactly (Proportional bias) or approximately (Fuzzy bias). For example, you can create a playlist that will be randomly populated by songs that are rated more than 3 stars and are approximately from around the year 1967!
Replay Gain Support
Amarok supports replay gain tag information embedded in files and automatically adjusts the overall volume of the song to a common level.

Hints, Tips and FAQs
If you find that most of your music is recognized by Amarok, but some folders are not properly picked up, open a console and type

where folder is the path to the folder that has the problem. Then select Settings -> Configure Amarok in Amarok main window menu, and open Collection -> Rescan Collection page. Your folder should be visible again now.
