Is there anything out there for Linux that is not only an MP3 player but also allows you to build playlists, organize music and browse your collection (like iTunes, SoundJam, or *ugh* W(i)MP)?

I'm using XMMS. It feels like a Winamp copy. Doesn't have any of the organization/browsing features I'm looking for.

well, the only feature i need is to add a dir of mp3s, and not add ones that are already in the playlist, gnutella has a way of putting 50 or so mp3's at a time on my disks   :D  and i get sick of refreshing my 1000+ mp3 list everytime i get done with gnutella, and want to listen to my finds

can i ask somebody please to tell me, is there a program in linux which can easily edit ID3 version 2 tags in mp3s?

my copy of XMMS only does ID3 version 1 tags, which is very annoying as most of my MP3s have ID3 version 2 tags. The most annoying thing about XMMS is that you can only edit ID3 version 1 tags, but it will read any ID3 version 2 tags in preference! so if you change the version 1 tags to the correct info, the wrong info will still come up in the display (since it will still be wrong in the uneditable ID3 version 2 tag)

can anybody help me with this quandary?
