Default Audio Player for Xubuntu candidate

[Ronnie Whisler]

I am in favor of gmusicbrowser to be the default audio player for 
Xubuntu. This music player has a ton of features excellent looks. 
Extremely Lightweight. I am currently using the Queue, Library & Context 
layout but there is also iTunes like layout and quodlibet like layout 
and many more.

requirements:

    * perl <http://www.perl.org/>
    * gtk+2 <http://www.gtk.org/> and its perl bindings
      <http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/>
    * gstreamer <http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/> and its perl
      bindings <http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/>  or  mpg321
      <http://mpg321.sourceforge.net/>/ogg123
      <http://www.vorbis.com/>/flac123
      <http://flac-tools.sourceforge.net/>/amixer <--and you don't need
      them all if you don't want them all I'm using only mpg321 and
      ogg123 with gtk2 tray icon
      <http://www.alsa-project.org/>
    * (optional) the Gtk2::Trayicon
      <http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=64773&package_id=96720>
      module is needed to put an icon in the system tray
    * (optional) the Gtk2::MozEmbed
      <http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=64773&package_id=127248>
      module is needed for the MozEmbed plugin (used for wikipedia
      artist page and searching lyrics with google) (on some systems,
      may requires the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to be set to
      the mozilla lib path, "/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox-1.0.6/" on my system)

      played, flag, ...)
