+Yup[1] -- a fork of Amarok 1.4. It was forked when Amarok was completely
+rebuilt in anticipation of the newer KDE 4.x.x. People were not
+satisfied with the direction the new Amarok was going to, were
+frustrated with the temporary-loss of functionality as Amarok was being
+re-built, and, they wanted all of the functionality of Amarok 1.4. It
+works pretty well like Amarok but I find that the newer Amarok is nicer
+and quite simply works best of the two. As for the complaints, they have
+pretty well have all been addressed with the new Amarok.
+
+Still, Amarok or Clementine are two good choice.
+
+Another good choice is VLC which plays ALL types of files. It also has a
+playlist window. It is not as &quot;beautified&quot; as Amarok but works without
+any problems.
+
+BTW ... my Amarok plays flawlessly, does not stop between tracks and I
+have over 1400 tracks. It also does lyrics that some of my family
+members use Amarok &quot;Karaoke style&quot;, the Wiki pane is nice as also the
+scrolling image pane.
+
+BTW ... I am not involved in any part of Amarok. These are my opinions
+based on the playability of Amarok. I also manage between 30-40 (as a
+volunteer) Mandriva/Mageia boxes for other people/groups and have not
+heard of any complaints of Amarok thus far for any of my Mageia setups.
+My Mandriva setups are being migrated to Mageia2 as I service these in
+my shop.
+
+Cheers,
+
+Marc
