What's your favorite music player on Linux?

Mine is Strawberry since it has a ton of options and plays a ton of formats. It's also (distant) fork of Amarok 1.4 and integrates well with KDE Plasma. I'm curious what other people are using these days. What's your favorite player?

mpd + ncmpc

I am but a simple man. All my music is FLAC. It is arranged neatly in folders. I just want to select an album to play. I do not need album covers, playlists, search, streaming, tags, lyrics, analyzers, or scrobbling.
- Agreed, with the exception of album covers. I like it all to look nice on my Hidizs when I'm on the go.
- Permanently Deleted
  
  Sometimes I poke around Wikipedia and see what other artists collaborated with, influenced, or were influenced by artists I like, and buy their albums.
  
  Sometimes I download highly-rated shows from random artists on Internet Archive's Live Music Archive
  
  Sometimes friends recommend stuff.

  My client doesn't have to answer that.

  If the artist has a way to buy and download from their website, I do that. Otherwise I buy CDs or vinyl and rip them.
  
  This is a great idea.
- More of a gmpc kinda person. Unless there's a better GUI for mpd out there?
  
  There's always mpdas for scrobbling
