I have not had problems with this, but once in a while (say once a day),
when a song is finished, it will skip to a new song, but will stop, it
will not play that song. Sometimes it crashes (hangs), and sometimes I
can get it playing again just by double-clicking on the song.

Yes, that's my biggest problem right now with RB. I don't use the seek
bar when listening to songs, but I listen to long radio podcasts, and I
use the seek bar to skip the numerous commercials that interrupt the
program every 10 minutes.  But because the seek bar is soooo buggy, most
of the time I give up on it and resort to hearing the
commercials ! :-/ :o(((

I filed a bug about it, should you wish to subscribe and/or add your bit
to it:

There is no tag editing capabilities currently, so that's normal ;o)
According to this link : 

http://gnomedesktop.org/node/2626

,the CVS version of RB has support for tag editing, but because support
for it is not quite yet perfect, it's turned off by default.

Depending what your problems are, it might match the one I experience,
and for which I filed a bug report. See:
