I just love DeadBeef... I only miss one thing: being able to import
playlists form other music players. Xnoise is interesting because it can
play videos too and from what I've read, Ubuntu is targeting a media player
such as Banshee (it's being considered to be made default for UNE sometime)
because it can play both music and video files. And that does make sense: a
media player instead of both a video and a music player.

But Xnoise is still too young and incomplete for now (at least for the video
part).
