[ale] how about XMMS2? [was: playlists not available in RealPlayer?]

[Matt Kubilus]

I really like the interface to Amarok.  I think it looks great, I like
the way it works, I like the extras and features, and it has non-Linux
users go 'wow' when they see it.  Unfortunately, as is the case with
almost every other KDE based app I use, it is simply too flakey for
serious use.  Randomly in the middle of a song, in the middle of the
day, in the middle of me trying to work, Amarok will loudly garble all
the sound.  Features before stability huh?  I guess I'm back to XMMS.
