Hi Chris,
Indeed, you can install Pianobar and run it quite happily. There are ways
to make installing most common Unix software almost like apt-get, though the
latter itself hasn't been ported over I don't think. Consider sites like
www.macports.org, which maintains an up-to-date copy of pianobar among many
other packages, installed via a 'ports' command.
Hope this helps,
Zack.

Seeing that OSX basically at the end of the day under the hood is! believe
it or not, a form of Unix, and seeing that it is possible to get to a
terminal shell through the Utilities folder in the finder, could one
actually run Unix/Linux based CLI apps that don't require a graffic
interface? For example, there is a really nice command line only Linux
based Pandora player called pianobar. It works absolutely flawlessly!
Also could one install apt then do things on a mac like apt-get install or
aptitude install packagename?
I know that sounds like a dumb question, but... yeah, I know I could run
Linux in a VM machine, or could probably in theory even do it with
bootcamp, but I really would rather not, as there's really only like 3 or
4 things from Linux that I'd like to port over.
Thanks.
Chris.
