amaroK to me is one of the shining examples of fantastic open source.
It's configurable, though not overly so; and its great functionality is
not buried behind programmer panels.

I have been a die-hard Winamp user since my Windows days (which ended a
year ago and left me a die-hard XMMS user). I tried amaroK randomly one
day and was so impressed that within 10 minutes of first opening it I was
looking for a feedback link to thank the authors.

I could go on and on quite a bit, but it's really one of those things
that you just have to try.

Agreed, it looks really cool. Now if only I could get it to produce any sound... none of the engines make as much as a whistle.

I must debug it one of these days.
