I came here simply to mention foobar2000, and I am happy that many people before me did. Some mentioned they missed it on Linux.

I am a Windows user myself, but I feel "ncmpcpp" is a good alternative on linux (apparently that's an Ncurses Music Player written in CPP). Simple, console list interface with good features.

foobar works perfectly and with no noticeable performance difference on linux in wine, and is imo miles better than any of the native linux apps.
