Although I might heavily regret it later on, but maybe we should stick
to (the horrible) xfburn, since Brasero does use a lot of dependencies
and is kinda slow. :(
And slow + many dependencies is unacceptable in a ¨true¨ lightweight
distro, even if the app is user-friendly.

I might have found something good, it´s Exaile, a music player.
It is a bit like a lightweight rhythmbox, it loads quickly and supports
a lot of music files. Through Synaptic you can even install a plugin for
Ipod support, and you can also install a plugin for pidgin so pidgin can
display the music song you are listening with exaile.
Sounds brilliant hey? no... it uses about 20 mb of memory... :(
Although........ Aqualung uses 14 mb of memory. (LXmusic 2 mb XD )
Exaile has many advantages, it is not gray and ugly like aqualung, less
dependencies, more support. Is the 6 mb difference acceptable in Lubuntu?
