However, even though Amarok is imho still the best player around, I switched to Quod Libet recently and now I'm almost completely happy with it, especially after I added quodlibet-plugins and qoudlibet-extensions (I actually got those from the Debian Sid packages, as not all the plugins listed on the quodlibet website appear to work correctly at the moment). But, as you said, what works for me might not work for you... Heh, Zero_Dogg, my thoughts exactly.

I personally only have the problem that it doesn't let me use operators to find more than one song at a time. But I solve it with the "Dynamic playlists" feature.

I like the way amaroK lists it Artist->Album->Track without taking up so much of the screen real-estate. Never liked the rhythmbox UI, donno why, but I never did :o. In the times I used beep-media-player I tried it and went back to having 5000 songs in beep-media-player over using it :P Adam, I’ll look into those, thanks :)

How is that? I use it for my collection of 20 GB of music and I rarely see it... As a happy user, I'm intrigued. Sure, it doesn't handle editing of id3 tags (but I use easytag, fantastic app) or album covers, which don't interest me, but as an easy to use player... Is ths bother something regarding its handling of radio stations or mp3 players? Saludos Adriano Rhythmbox gets too much in your way? How is that?

Did you try Banshee? For me it's still not mature enough, but it sure _looks_ good.
