Review: Exaile Media Player
,----[ Quote ]
| One of my favorite open source applications is Amarok, a music player
| with an intuitive interface that makes boring tasks such as organizing
| large music collections less troublesome. The only problem with Amarok
| is that it's a KDE application and I'm a GNOME user. Although there's
| nothing wrong with running KDE programs on GNOME, they take a long
| time to start, since they need to load the KDE libraries and
| components they depend on first. I've found a good alternative
| in Exaile, my new favorite media player for Linux.

AmaroK still puts to shame many proprietary counterparts. It's recent
versions are stable and relatively bug-free.
