you don't need mplayer to listen to music on any site.  xmms will handle all 
the audio formats you need (wav, mp3, ogg, etc.) the only one it won't do is 
ram (real audio media) so you'll need realplayer for that (emerge realplay). 

mplayer is really cool though.  it supports watching tv, video files, dvds, 
and encoding all of the above into video files etc.  did i say it's really 
cool?

soul that has lost its way. the war we fight is not against powers and 
principalities, it is against chaos and despair.  greater than the death of 
flesh is the death of hope.  the death of dreams.  against this peril we can 
never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting in moments of 
transition, to be born in moments of revelation.  no one knows the shape of 
that future, or where it will take us. we know only that it is always paved 
in pain.
