Perhaps not a program to be used by many, this week's choice appealed way too much to the computer geek side not to get a highlight.

mp3blaster is an audioplayer for the BASH command line.  That's right, a full-fledged mediaplayer for the console window.




The program includes all the functions you'd expect, including playlists, moving files, grouping, searching, repeat and shuffle.  It even has functionality built-in for filetype conversion.


So get out there and CTRL+ALT+F2 your way to favourite songs.

Well, no wonder it's free.
