Audacious
 Audacious is a
fork
of beep-media-player, a multimedia player that uses a skinned
user interface based on Winamp 2.x skins, which in itself was initially
forked from XMMS. Gentoo
published an interesting article
about the reasons why their distro dropped XMMS.
The reason for the creation of Audacious was mainly because
of technical problems with Beep Media Player.

Winamp.
