I know some of you have gone complies FOSS, but I believe if the developer wants to make money from their apps, there's noting wrong with it, as long as they are ethical. So what are your favorite non-foss apps?

Strawberry is a good drop-in replacement for foobar2000.

I'll second Strawberry. I loved foobar and was worried about losing it when I migrated to linux, but I found Strawberry and it looks and functions just the way I liked foobar.

Isn't Strawberry a fork of Clementine? I was using Clementine for years before I realized it had been abandoned, and unfortunately Strawberry doesn't have any podcast support. Iirc they don't have any intention of supporting podcasts either so for me at least it doesn't truly fill the void.

It is, and Clementine was a fork of KDE's Amarok 1.4. No plans to support podcasts unfortunately but there is streaming support.

There's also DeaDBeeF, which has more UI customization available as far as I can tell.
