Which is your favorite music player ?
 
My favorite is Audacious.

Its really awesome coz it remembers the the last track played in a playlist and that too with the exact position of the track.

Which is your favorite music player ?

Xmms in a GUI, mpg123 in the terminal. :)

Rhythmbox.

Deadbeef or quodlibet. Deadbeef is my top favorite, I use quodlibet if deadbeef is not in my distro of the day’s package list.

mpd and ncmpcpp with Gnome Media Player Client on a laptop or other mpd client on a tablet or phone.

I prefer Clementine.

I have grown quite fond of QMMP. And I can use all my old Winamp and XMMS skins with it.

I could never remember 'ncmpcpp' either, until I thought it through:

Ncurses Music Player written in C plus plus
Now it sticks.

But yeah,
Code:

nincompoop
is much nicer!

nincompoop :) bash alias time.

Mostly I just use 'play' from the SoX suite. It doesn't handle m4a, but all my music is in .flac so that doesn't bother me.

I do like mpd, but it's kind of overkill for me.

I used to like playing music in xine so I could watch the oscilloscope, but haven't used that in a long time.

Hehe, nincompoop is the alias I gave it on my system, smoother to write, too (imho).
The "Ncurses Music Player written in C plus plus" as ondoho wrote it out works well for recolletion, also.

Sox is fun, I used to have some aliases that simulated the USS Enterprise hum and other such things collected from various sites.
