+and individual song files, search for artists and albums in your entire music
+library, or create and edit your own custom playlists.  Listen to CD’s or stream
+music from the Internet.  Tweak the sound with the graphical equalizer or
+experiment with LADSPA effects.  Enjoy the modern GTK-themed interface or change
+things up with Winamp Classic skins.  Use the plugins included with Audacious to
+fetch lyrics for your music, to set an alarm in the morning, and more.")
