DESCRIPTION
       Audacious is a free advanced audio player for Linux and many other
       UNIX-compatible systems.  It focuses on low resource usage, high audio
       quality, and support for a wide range of audio formats.  It was
       originally based on Beep Media Player, which was in turn based on XMMS.
