SnackAmp is a multi-platform music player with normal music player abilities, 
multi-user support, integrated web server, and a powerful AutoPlaylist feature. 
Currently mp3, wav, ogg vorbis,and many other sound files are supported. 
SnackAmp also plays mp3 and ogg streams and can act as a Icecast/Shoutcast 
compatible server for other stream clients. Both auto-leveling (normalization) 
and gapless playback are supported. Tcl/Tk scripts and stand-alone executables 
(for Windows and Linux) are available from sourceforge. 

The motivation behind SnackAmp was to overcome the deficiency in other media 
players to manage thousands (or tens of thousands) of mp3/ogg files in a both 
powerful and easy to use manner without relying solely on ID3 tags to categorize 
the music by genre or complete re-indexing of the media folders when tags or 
file names are moved or modified. SnackAmp runs on a number of platforms and has 
multi-user capabilities making it a natural fit for office or educational 
environments. Being open source and written Tcl/Tk, the best scripting language 
around, you can change it to suite your needs. SnackAmp includes the wonderful 
Snack 2.2.5 Sound toolkit written and maintained by K
