Asking a seasoned Linux user what music player you should use is akin to bringing up questions about religion or politics with your drinking buddies. A much safer strategy is, don’t ask and don’t tell. But if you insist, let me throw a suggestion into the fray. Uncage Songbird. You might be pleasantly surprised at the melodious results. I’m not saying that Songbird is a near-perfect song collection organizer and player. It has a lot to offer, though. Songbird is unlike so many other music players on the various Linux desktop environments.
I refuse to support any program that openly refuses to support my platform of choice. In my opinion, by dropping Linux support you turned your back on the community that got you where you are in the first place. So as far as I am concerned, and since there are much better solutions already available for Linux, Songbird can die a slow and excruciating death.
