Amarok

Super awesome music player for Linux, but it missing cross-platform support many Windows can't uses it!

While Amarok may currently be looking up to products such as Windows Media Player or Winamp 3, that is precisely what is taking me away from it. Simplest solutions are usually the best ones, such as XMMS / Winamp2.

Personally, I don't need a wealth of options regarding a media library; I can use another piece of software if I need that. In a media player, I'm looking for a fast startup time, and quick playing of a song, a bit of playlist management and that's it.

I don't need album covers. I can use a search engine for that.
I don't need "organized" storage of 1001 playlist. I know very well how to store playlist files in folders.

On the other hand, thumbs up to the development team for producing such a quality software. But, WMP and WA3 are both quality software, but still filled with unneeded things. WA5 isn't far away. Amarok has sadly stepped where WMP has gone.

I have never found such an intuitive and feature-reach media player.

The integration with last.fm or magnatune is absolutely fantastic.
