So, if you're going to say that about otakus then can you explain why your choices are superior?

I'll let someone else handle VLC, but fb2k is good because:

* Extremely fast startup and snappy interface

* Supports a wide variety of formats

* Uses existing ID3 tags & Vorbis comments and doesn't try creating its own

* Mature plugin interface

* Reasonably simple

Downsides are that you have to be willing to spend a little extra time organizing your music and it's weak with playlists and device synchronization.
