Laptop versions of kernels tend to want to save power to increase battery life. Distributions may offer different versions of kernels for use, even within the same distribution release. For instance, Mandriva has laptop, multi-processor, server, large RAM size, desktop, and multimedia kernels, plus some permutations of those. For listening to compressed music with a player, the laptop kernel should save power and be adequate for the music. Having power saving hardware, e.g. super efficient power supply and very few add-in cards, can help a lot too.
