Basically, it's a simple music player that does it's job and works really fast. Other than it's speed, I was also impressed with how little system resources it uses: 8.7 MB of RAM (on my system) and never more than 2% CPU (my music collections is something near 40.000 songs).
Please note that to install it in Ubuntu, you can't have Nvidia 190 drivers (because libxine1 depends on nvidia185 drivers).
