A couple of friends have been asking me lately if there is any alternative mp3 player for the mac besides iTunes.
I heard songbird will be soon coming out for os x, but does anyone else have any other recommendations or is itunes "it"?

QT plays the music as well.
it's just not as friendly as iTunes.

I found a bunch at Version Tracker. Air Whisper. SkiTunes. Music Player X. And there are more.

I'd check out Audion. Back when MP3 playing was in its infancy, this was the application that was the main competition for SoundJam MP, the app upon which iTunes was originally based (or at least developed by the same people).
