yo ol bitch ass

no one's forcing you to read it buddy

music player - xmms
video player - vlc
Both can be found in the repositories(i'm assuming that's what you mean by software center). xmms even supports winamp audio presets which is a huge bonus.

Oh and as for installing sofrware in the terminal:
sudo apt-get install xmms - debian based (debian, ubuntu, mint)
sudo yum install xmms - red hat based (red har enterprise, fedora, centos)
sudo yast2 -i xmms - suse based (opensuse, suse enterprise)

Rythmbox in my views is far not the most useful player out there. I'm guessing pulseaudio causes this since it tags every audio stream and therefore sometimes ignores the new stream based on it's type. Check /var/log/syslog. Much like what Rythmbox does with skype-when someone logs on and the sound comes up, it marks the sound as "call", logically marking it as more important than as a result-music gets automatically paused. There was a setting in Rhythmbox which fixes such problems for flac files i think it was called "gapless playback" or something. XMMS is a far better player anyways but it requires an additional plugin(available in repos). It's either xmms_flac or xmms-flac depending on the distribution.

Well known fact that programmers can't communicate. Point is your stats are a bit off.

FYI 1.5% of desktops run linux. 56% of smartphones and tablets run android aka linux kernel. Oh and a close to nothing 95% of all servers over the globe. But I guess that isn't far at all.

1 hour joke ban, don't get heated
