I really hate the user interface for XMMS... =P

I recently installed and have been using RhythmBox for a while now,
seems to be nicer than XMMS for managing and playing larger collections
of MP3's.  It's sort of like iTunes I guess, in that you can browse
through your collection based on genre/artist/album.  It's not perfect
yet, still needs some work, but it's not too bad.  Supports rating songs
and keeps track of when/how often you play them, and you can sort based
on those things (or just about anything really).
