From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

i like rhythmbox a lot and it's so great to use it as a music player but most of my music files don't even have any metadata it's just "song-name-author.opus" so it's a lot for me which is why i would use vlc instead yea!!! but anyway ummm why does xfce or gnome use rhythmbox??

That's fair. Though "simple" for me is actually having meticulously sorted and tagged media. That way it displays reliably and beautifully in most any player.

Nothing beats playing just what you want, when you want, whether or not there's internet available and at the highest quality you can afford. Quodlibet/Rythmbox, ID3 and puddletag FTW !!.

Nice.

I like a combo of FLAC + mpd/ncmpcpp, and running everything through Picard for tagging.

When I'm on the go (car or foot) I use a Hiby R4 DAP with VLC, and the collection translates flawlessly.

Also, scrobble all the things to libre.fm
