The motivation behind SnackAmp was to overcome the deficiency in other media players to manage tens of thousands of mp3/ogg files in a powerful and easy to use manner. Although a database is used to track files by their metadata, SnackAmp allows you to organize your files in a familiar directory structure allowing you maximum freedom without having to change each tag to display the files in a certain way.

SnackAmp runs on a number of platforms and has a simple installation process requiring download of a single file. Being open source and written Tcl/Tk, the best scripting language around, you can change it to suite your needs. SnackAmp includes the wonderful Snack.
