I packed some of my favourite songs from SNES games in a zip file HERE. Some pretty cool songs that we usually don't pay attention while playing. Well, it's SNES so don't expect anything too fancy.
You can listen to them in Winamp or XMPlay, with the SNESAMP plugin.
If you have something from other systems, please tell us where to get the player too.
KTHXBAI.

My old playlist. It's about 150kb. I just kinda added everything I had one day, and gradually deleted things I didn't like. Might as well post it, why not.

I used Foobar2000 on Windows, which beats the shit out of anything I've used on Linux. It's very customizable, and the playlist searching is fast. You also can use global hotkeys to call the "jump to file" dialog. The plugins aren't as good as you can get in Winamp, though.
The smart thing for Linux users is probably to use Winamp through Wine and dump everything to MP3, then use MPlayer or whatever. Storage is worth less than the time spent sifting through all this crap...
Lots of people like Audio Overload, but it's 1) closed source 2) CLI-impaired and 3) doesn't seem to support minipsf.
I use Audacious, which has its problems, but I find it the most serviceable player available. It's open source, and you can get it via APT. It's missing support for GSF, 2SF, USF, and miniPSF. I was able to build and run from source, though- maybe I'll fix that eventually.
For GSF and 2SF formats, there's playgsf and vio2play, both open source and reasonably complete standalone players.
M1 seems to be the only choice for playing arcade chiptunes. You don't need ripped *SF-style files to play arcade music, as this program plays the ROMs directly. M1 has some kind of playlist support (which is the alternative to the tracks repeating forever) but I haven't found any such lists online. Works on Windows and Linux. (Maybe Mac, too. I dunno.)

Yeah, M1 is the only option for arcade games... it's old and outdated, but it's pretty good.
But winamp has all these plugins AND global hotkeys as well.

Winamp is probably better for most users. I stopped using it for a bunch of reasons, mainly that the installer tried to sneak AOL spam onto my computer.
The lists work great, BTW. Thanks.
Sneak what? If you're just blindly stabbing the 'next' key, then sure, but that's not really being sneaky. Check installation options when you're installing new software.
About the subject: Why does it matter that the music in the SPC files is copyrighted? It's not like we aren't distributing that exact same music in the AVI/MKV files already. An SPC is in no way "more copyrighted" than the video files. If one should not distribute SPC files here, then we should stop distributing all the video files as well.

Good point. I'll put them back.
