From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I was really hoping you'd say it was Foobar2000! You can run Foobar2000 using something like Wine/Bottles, but the UI gets all screwy. Recently, somebody released a Foobar-alike called Fooyin and I love it! Here's how I styled my layout:
Fooyin definitely has some growing to do, but I think it's the best you can do on Linux if the goal is the ability to play bit-pefect music with a similar setup to Foobar2000.
Wow, I installed it today and it's perfect for me! I tried Deadbeef and wanted to like it, but it couldn't replace Foobar. Fooyin can, thanks for the recommendation.
Awesome, I'm glad to help spread the good word! Fooyin is still in its infancy it seems, but I'm hoping we'll get some more features in it soon- I'm hoping for spectrogram/waveform visualization as well as EQ.
