I agree. Yet, it is an explicit and intended behavior. Hence I will mark
this report as a "Wishlist bug".

Title:
  Unfriendly "Please move your music to [dir]" message on first startup

Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: banshee

  In a fresh 11.04-dev install, Banshee's first message was, in white on
  black:

      "Please move your music to /home/sander/Muziek"

  For several reasons I think this is not a good welcome:
  - the user may not have any digital music yet, so there is nothing to move,
  - the user might not be familiar with the forward-slash directory notation, which is hidden well in other GNOME apps,
  - the user may have reasons to put music in another directory, and then "File > Import Media" is a better option.

  Some suggestions for improvement:
  - adding a "Import Media" button in the main screen when the library is empty,
  - starting in the Ubuntu One Music Store,
  - adding a way to open the ~/Music directory in Nautilus, so that the user can easily drag-and-drop music files.
