View Poll Results: Audio Media Player Application of the Year
VLC, as it is the best on the list.
I am personally using Mplayer for quite some time and I am really happy with it. Unfortunately it is not in the list of possible answers.
Always been a Rhythmbox fan. Audacious is decent as well. I didn't even know xmms was even still in development. I've not used it in probably 10yrs, and seemed to recall it's development coming to an end back then.
Audacious is where it's at! Oh and qmmp too is quite good. Both of which support LADSPA plugins.
Runner up would Nightingale, yes I still use it because with the MLyrics add-on it's the only audio player that I know of that first reads and displays the lyrics stored in the mp3 file. This is particularly useful for uncommon songs and mixes which other players and their online lyric services usually don't find.
I use Banshee and MusicBrainz Picard to organize music, in case some tags / cover pictures etc. are missing, and I've used many audio ripping softwares because in some cases one works and another one does not, in other cases it's the opposite.
