XMMS replacement

[Madison Kelly]

This is quite a late reply, I realize, but...

Given my recent PIO mode issue, I've temporarily switched laptops until 
I solve the problem. On my normal laptop, I got XMMS working and hadn't 
gotten to trying audacious yet (the others were not quite what I had 
been looking for).

Anyway, I just set it up on this lappy and wow, I couldn't have asked 
for a more perfect replacement for XMMS. With the "refugee" skin and a 
couple small changes to the preferences you would be hard pressed to 
know know it wasn't XMMS itself.

Thanks for the excellent recommendation!
