What are you guys using for media players?

 

Since getting an iPod, I’ve become fond of how iTunes manages music collections, and I haven’t been able to find a good Linux alternative. Exaile comes close, but I’m still missing the following

 

iTunes had a lovely way of storing compilation albums separately, so your main “list” of artists wasn’t cluttered up by those on compilation CDs. Exaile/Amarok seem to list everything by artist > album, and when you have several compilations, this list becomes difficult to manage

Audio books, iTunes has a nice way of storing those “out of the way”, can’t see anything in amarok to do this..

 

There’s some other features I can’t find good implementations of, but these are my two pet-hates at the moment. I haven’t heard of any iTunes Linux versions on the horizon, and I don’t think running under WINE would be ideal

 

Any suggestions?
