1. Download the Developer Preview from www.songbirdnest.com/download
2. I download 0.2.5. There were two of them at the time. The larger one (16.9MB) did not work while the smaller, (15.3MB) worked fine.
3. Copy and Extract the downloaded file to a folder. “/opt” is good.
   $ cp Songbird_0_2_1_linux-i686.tar.gz /opt
   $ tar xzvf Songbird_0_2_1_linux-i686.tar.gz
4. Set the permissions to /opt/Songbird to your user using this command
