Been a lot of recent threads where pointing the OP to common apps is the best answer isn't it ?

That wiki page is there for a reason.
Seriously though, I simply don't know any player that would suit the OP (I'm using mplayer w/o the gui), so I try to confuse^H^H^H^H help him/her by pointing to a list of nice players.

Hi Karol,

First i tried to use sonata (front-end for mpd), but now i'm enjoing Abraca with xmms2.

For me is better use a daemon because the music is the first application that i need to start

i'm using xmms2, because it's user specific, i mean anyone could have your oun collection, and i don't need stop the daemon to regenerate a collection.

mpd + ncmpcpp.

I know there's desktop cover art widgets out there that work with mpd, so you should be set

Re: any good music player?

+1 for
mpd + ncmpcpp
its fast, lightweight, simple and advanced (many options if you really want to configure it - like creating an internet-radio) - and it is a daemon (no more evil crashes because of the gtk/qt, etc...)

Actually, I switched from ncmpcpp to sonata because I wanted album art, and so far I'm liking it!
