Lightweight mp3 player?

[goldboyd]

Just picked up my first mac (new alu macbook), so far I like it, the only app I cant seem to find is a decent mp3 player. Yes, itunes works, but something a little more lightweight and less clunky would be nice...similar to winamp. Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks

Well, there is songbird, but that is modelled after iTunes, but it has tabs like firefox, so I don't think that is what you are looking for. I recall once seeing something that didn't look too bad, but I like iTunes because
A: I have an iPod
B: I prefer library players over file players. Because when I listen to music, I would rather listen to a bunch of songs, or even a bunch of playlists. As opposed to when I watch movies, where I watch the movie, and then go do something else.

You might want to check out VLC, see if that floats your boat. I will see if I can recall the app that I stumbled across (it was at least a year ago, so it might take some time to find it again)

I believe Amarok has an OS X version. You might want to check that out.
