mpg123
What is mpg123? It is a fast, free and portable MPEG audio player for Unix. It supports MPEG 1.0/2.0 layers
1, 2 and 3 (those famous "mp3" files), and it has been tested on a wide variety of platforms, including Linux,
FreeBSD, NetBSD, SunOS, Solaris, IRIX, HP−UX and others. For full CD quality playback (44 kHz, 16 bit,
stereo) a Pentium (or fast 486), SPARCstation10, DEC Alpha or similar CPU is required. Mono and/or
reduced quality playback (22 kHz or 11 kHz) is even possible on slower 486 CPUs.
