Verily I say unto thee, that Roy Schestowitz spake thusly:

Pretty much anything that uses libavcodec/libavformat supports MP3,
along with around 345 other formats (see "mplayer -av help" and "mplayer
-ac help" for the list). This includes MPlayer, VLC, ffmpeg (ffplay),
and presumably many others. Beat that, Windows Media Player. LOL!
For listening to music, I prefer AmaroK though, which also supports MP3,
ogg, MP4, and a host of other formats. Not that I really need it to,
since my entire collection is in ogg vorbis format, including the iTMS
purchased music that I stripped of DRM with QTFairUse6, then converted.
