[ale] playlists not available in RealPlayer?

[Jay Loden]

I would definitely recommend Amarok as tops for Linux MP3 players. It 
has all the features you could want from a music player (lyrics, album 
art, playlists, even iPod sync, etc) and it's actively under 
development. There are some other excellent players out there, but I 
think amarok arguably has the most complete package similar to an iTunes 
type of functionality on Linux.
