Best Audio Player for Linux

Hey all!

I just emerged GNOME and I love it, but now I need an audio player. If I could get wine to run iTunes that would rock, but from what I have read it looks like native Linux players it is. XMMS seems too simple, so I am looking for an "iTunes" equivalent (or as close as one can get) for Linux. Any ideas?

Rhythmbox for Gnome or Amarok for kde?

I checked out Rhythmbox and it looks cool. Are there any other good ones?

I like mpd (Music player daemon) with either gmpc or pympd as a client. Both are very nice, though pympd is still at a quite early stage in development.

MPD + {gmpc,ncmpc} is a great option.

For me XMMS has the best Soundengine. Amarok has the best Usability.
