[Ubuntu Chicago] Ubuntu friendly Mp3/video Player?

[Michael McCune]

The older Sansa players are Rockbox capable, which means they will play
FLAC, OGG, M_3 and Xvid. http://www.rockbox.org

Look for them on ebay, since the new players aren't rockbox compatible.
Frobi used to carry them but they are sold out.
