I've grown fond of Rhythmbox of late.

retrodanny 01-16-2011 02:50 PM

I use cplay, but I don't see it listed...

Audacious!

yeah!!! MOC at last here!! Cheers.

Most audio players on Linux are hideous.
Amarok is gross, rhythmbox isn't much better - the GUI's are just shameful. Neither can cope with gapless playback properly.
And the other apps are all "also rans".

Not at all happy with audio playback on Linux!

Aqualung is gapless - a key reason for its coming into existence according to the blurb.

I'm a very recent Audacious convert.

verndog 01-17-2011 09:48 AM

I use VLC, but its already in another category, so I will skip this vote.

ksourabh 01-17-2011 10:09 AM

though Exaile is quite slow on large media library, I use it often for small playlists......Exaile forever

I am not sure if Spotify should be in there (??). It is not really a traditional music player...but it can also play local music.

dugan 01-17-2011 12:45 PM

I do not agree that Sonata and MPD should be separate entries.

deadite81 01-17-2011 01:53 PM

cmus as well. Although the latest Audacious is good too. They got rid of that retro winamp junk (at least it's not the default anymore) and now it fits in nicely with the Gnome desktop. Too bad cmus wan't on the list :(

jeremy 01-17-2011 02:03 PM

cmus has been added.
Spotify does not fit in with this category.
