    Links to builds for different Linux distributions on Songbird download website should be more obvious
    Hello,

    I use Ubuntu and I think that Songbird download page could be made a little friendlier for average Linux users like me. I mean, more and more Linux users are not programmers or computer freaks nowadays, but "normal people". I myself am just an English Language teacher in South America.

    The problem is that when you are interested in Songbird and go to Songbird download page, the first thing you see under the Linux download option is a tarball, and well... you just leave. Only by chance did I discover that you were making the Debian package available at the bottom of the page. IMHO, builds for the different Linux distributions should be displayed first, and then tarballs, for those who really know how to compile stuff like that. Another solution could be making the Linux option button take you to a new page displaying the different builds AND the tarballs.

    Thanks, and keep the great work!

    PS: The attached image shows what you see as soon as you access Songbird download page. Once you have read "Linux" you seldom keep looking for alternatives on the page.
