BoomBox is a music player with a unique database browser.

The whole thing started when I was trying out winamp3, the player everybody hates because of it's enourmous memory consumption. I didn't like it too much either, but it had one thing that I liked: the library browser (or whatever they called it).

After switching to using Linux exclusively (thanks to Gentoo) I searched around a lot to see if I could find something similar, but I couldn't. So I started writing BoomBox. Only took me about a week or two before I could uninstall xmms.

It uses xinelib to gain support for a whole bunch of file types and webradio and stuff.

It has a powerful database thanks to sqlite. Powerful and simple user interface.
