AFAIK, !available_for_linux(napster);
..however, wget can download in the background.
I like xaudio better than mpg123 because it seems to have less overhead
and greater tolerance of malformed mp3's.
If you want a fancy player, you can use X11AMP, it nicely emulates WinAMP
in most ways.
For MP3's, you might also check out www.iuma.com.
