What I'm curious of is comments by people who still use XMMS, and why. What are the most important things to you that need to be fixed in
Rhythmbox?
I still use XMMS, since it's less CPU intensive than Rhythmbox. On an older machine Rhythmbox, tends to use too much resources.
True. There's a few senses of "removal" - removal from the package set entirely, and just removal from the default installation, and removal from the default menu. I'm really only talking about the latter.
I use XMMS.
Why?
It just feels right to me. I've tried alot of others, and I make sure that I try them for at least a week. But in the end, I have always ended up with XMMS. Either for the feel, for the plugin's etc.
Would I be upset if it was taken from the distro?
yes
Would I be upset if it was taken from the main menu?
No.
I do think it's a little confusing to have both in the main menu. I think a new user would be happy with Rhythmbox. I think also that a user that is already used to XMMS and wants to play it, is going to go for that extra effort to find it.
So my final 2 cents worth is yes, pull xmms from the main menu, and even from being installed by default if that is needed. Just don't take it from the distribution.
