    A really good media player. Very lightweight player that also has a nice clean interface.

    Very visually appealing, but it slowed down with my 10+ GB library. Guayadeque is gaining popularity these days: Guayadeque Music Player

    Thats strange I have 25 gb of music, a lot of FLAC lossless, and it didn't slow down at all. On the first run it syncs data from last.fm -- album covers, metadata, etc., -- but that is only on the first time it is opened. It should be very fast after that.
