justhelpingothers 1 month ago	5	Installed it today and it is awesome! far lighter than Rhytmbox, more stable and with a lot of interesting features (I love when it displays the lyrics of a song).
niburech 2 months ago	4	This is an excellent player and works surprisingly well on a raspberry pi (with some settings adjustments)
jepe 2 months ago	4	cool, intuitive, open source! however, it won't allow you to have just a plain UI, it forces you to have the sidebar even if you untick "show sidebar" -- so, in the end I switched to Audacious which is perfect in every sense
Caltrop 4 months ago	5	go to their website for latest version, way better than RhythmBox!
FreeWebber 4 months ago	4	Not cool like AIMP, but still best player on Linux!

Manny7901 1 year ago	5	Great program. Best for platform as of yet.

wolfred 2 years ago	5	The best Music Player for Linux!
brunopsk2 2 years ago	5	Como não me falaram deste player? Ele é tudo o que eu prcurava auqi no linux. o único que chega lado a lado do antigo winamp e realiza as suas funções com maestria.
Lettuce 2 years ago	4	I find Clementine awkward to use but considering how bad iTunes has gotten, it compares favorably. Love the internet options. Does not crash all the time like Rhythmbox and Amarok do. Android remote a great add-on. I use Mint 17 and 18.
danstinebaugh 2 years ago	5	Easily my favorite music player, all the internet options, gpodder, di.fm, soundcloud, all work great and who doesn't like the nyan cat visualizer!
antijosh 2 years ago	5	1010

jeop 3 years ago	4	I really love the visualizations! The metadata tools are great. The interface is not the most polished but it gets the job done.
nmjbhoffmann 3 years ago	5	By far the best audio manager, you should add the dev ppa to get the newer stuff, and the devs are always willing to listen to issues you may have

luisbraganca 3 years ago	5	Best music player on linux. If I select 3 files (.mp3, .pdf, .png) and open them, this is the only music player that ignores the .png and the .pdf and just opens the .mp3 file.
giffea 3 years ago	5	The only software which provide all the fuctions I need.
webpoint 3 years ago	5	Вещь!!! Отличный аудиоплеер и редактор тегов.

jean120 4 years ago	5	loooooove it!!!!
friTTe 4 years ago	5	Only thing is that i cant seem to login to Last.Fm for scrobbling
fritogotlayed 4 years ago	5	Love it. Working great on LinuxMint 16!
annoyingduck 4 years ago	5	New to Linux, and Banshee wasn't my cup of tea. Clementine however is just amazing. Does everything and does it well. Only wish there was a mini mode, but thats a fine trade-off for everything else.
tpen0010 4 years ago	5	So fantastic. It does everything a music app should, and it has perks like you can click on Song Info and get lyrics. So cool, well done programmers sirs.
Olliges78 4 years ago	5	When I moved to Linux I screamed because of losing Winamp but then I found Clementine. It is even better than Winamp.
floraliis 4 years ago	5	Fantastic. I like it more than Banshee and Rythmbox. I only liked Winamp on my gaming PC (win7) more
digibill 4 years ago	5	Light, full of features, fast, stable. One of the best music players.
hskov 4 years ago	5	Excellent player. Switched because Banshee kept crashing. Works great on LinuxMint 32-bit as well as Windows 8.1 64-bit. Remote control from Android is great!!
mazinga 4 years ago	5	Awesome for organising libraries, would be even better if it had the possibility to delete some integrated features (too much icons).
playforvoices 4 years ago	5	Easy to use music player with a easy access to internet radio stations!
Kajko 4 years ago	5	Excellent music player!
uzumaxy 4 years ago	5	One of the best music players!
opetnaistommestu 4 years ago	4	Good looking little sexy thing, could be awesome, but has some issues and some questionable features. Snowflake away from being perfect!
chinese007 4 years ago	1	Yes, it look like `perfect` `must have` something like that BUT, it not work well on Mint 16 petra 32bit, wii remote controler working but not fine, and then Clementine Apps on mobile phone play list also have problem, hopeless~
Sylverlyn 4 years ago	5	Un lecteur audio simple mais efficace.
GeorgeChalkitis 4 years ago	5	I use it to make radio shows.Complete control over library and playlists with the most productive interface
amzer_zo 4 years ago	5	Simply the best player on Linux...
ptrvio 4 years ago	4	Excelente reproductor de música!!!!
schmoove 4 years ago	4	mint 16 x64 mate: works well, can be buggy with large collections when changing view modes, not as customisable as gmusicbrowser. for those looking for linux foobar2k alternative, gmusicbrowser is the program to go for. clementine is the 2nd best linux music player
zedgar 5 years ago	5	Superb. Like foobar for Linux.
JumpingJumping 5 years ago	5	Fab.
nessor 5 years ago	4	Should be installed by default
RavetcoFX 5 years ago	5	I...I Think I am in love, sorry Banshee
dogsolitude_uk 5 years ago	2	Clementine won't hook up to my NAS drive at all, and to make matters worse there's no proper 'help' file. It's not the fact that I can't add my NAS folders to the library, it's just that I HAVE NO WAY OF FINDING OUT HOW TO DO IT. I know it's free, but this is kind fo ridiculous, so I'm sticking with Banshee until they bother with a proper help file and documentation. Connecting to a NAS drive should be a simple process, and not involve hunting around the internet for hours and mucking about with the command line. Sorry, but not impressed.
misterunknown 5 years ago	5	The best music program since Amarok 1.4
stevewood007 5 years ago	5	LM15 Cinnamon 64-bit. Works well.
AvanOsch 5 years ago	5	Fantastic! Even has StarTrek backgound sound!
sikor 5 years ago	5	just awesome and i tried them all
MichaelOz 5 years ago	5	Absolute best audio player in Linux. Folder view is supported without any additional download. Excellent support for BlueTooth a2dp, including the ability to change track by bluetooth. Would be the perfect player if you could view albums in a grid view.
kyouzins 5 years ago	5	Best audio player for me in Linux.. Seems I don't miss Winamp in Windows. Way better except for navigation and shortcuts. Though Clementine takes a lot of ram memory I have no problem with it.
Ultimul_Mohican 5 years ago	5	The best audio player.
cineknt 5 years ago	3	Good, but it have a problem with playing music by LAN. Changing buffor doesn't fix the problem. Foobar2000 (wine) works without this problem.
sgraham66 5 years ago	5	Wonderful player.. And it brings the rain!
johaio 5 years ago	5	Best music player that I've tried recently!
Sclsoftware 5 years ago	5	Fantastic player!!
rstensen 5 years ago	3	It tels me to install a seperat modul for Spotify.Because of licens. Can sombody help me ??
Zackyboo123 5 years ago	5	Hard to get used to at first. But once you play around with it for awhile, it is really AWESOME!!!
idefixerl 5 years ago	5	bester musik-spieler
teweo 5 years ago	4	Simple y funcional
AndyVanMokum 5 years ago	3	Clementine is okay, it is light and very easy to use, granted. Unfortunatley it has no CD support. Without this feature, I can only give it a So So. If it had this feature, I would give it a Brilliant!
AlmostThere 5 years ago	5	This should be the default app for any distro. Lightweight and easy to use. All that remains is a decent cd ripper.
iraklisg 5 years ago	5	Having tried a bounche of music players so far, I found this lightweight fellow to be the best by far
Dutchman 5 years ago	5	What a music player should be. Clean and easy to use, yet powerful, stable and light. By far the best player on Linux.
Voliax 5 years ago	5	This one is the best, just give it a try ;) Thank you developers.
killkenny 5 years ago	5	O melhor player / biblioteca de musica que existe.
nagalman 5 years ago	5	The best music player on Linux, hands down. Tonns of features. Fairly lightweight and activly developed.
daiyi 5 years ago	5	lightweight and excellent
diegons49 5 years ago	5	Melhor player de audio do linux!
JohnOShock 5 years ago	5	good for those with external audio devices (flexible settings and workd with Jack audiosink). Easy to use and navigate through your library... and greatest of all: it hosts SOMA FM natively!
demaniak 5 years ago	5	Running on a lightweight netbook, it does what it is supposed to do, and so far has not suffered from the mystery silence as banshee.Looking good!
haejf 5 years ago	5	Hands down the best player for Linux. Looks sexy and album fetching works superb. Well done!
zbyna 5 years ago	5	Bye, bye Amarok :-) Very good but not as foobar from windows
defaultuser 5 years ago	4	Fast and pretty ;=))
krotow 5 years ago	5	Beats banshee, amarok and rythmbox and couple others. Because has feature set from all of them, don't hang, when playing streaming audio in unstable networks (amarok and banshee don't ppaly stream long in my workplace network - they hang - always) and itself are lightweight and pretty stable. Love it! And recomend it to others too.
djhurio 5 years ago	5	My favorite music player on Linux, however not as good as Winamp (regarding library).
mido 5 years ago	5	fast and pretty) very good! not slow rhythmbox
ravenheart 5 years ago	5	Great. I second what Impulse wrote below. Just a phenomenal and easy to use player, and it displays the embedded art for most all of my mp3 collection which no other player would do. I've tried banshee, amarok, vlc, & rhythmbox and was beginning to lose hope. Can't thank the developers enough for this one. :-)
0n_Impulse 6 years ago	5	Clementine imho beats rhythmbox, banshee, exaile, audacious, foobnix, and amarok (which it is a fork of) Clementine's light weight and useful features, easy personaltion and extremely intuitive UI blow compitition out of the water. I sincerely believe that 1.1 is their best release yet and should be stock on mint. No crashes, seemless GUI intergration, and minimul cpu usage make this a powerful, sleek, stable, and excellent muisc player. For anyone from winamp to itunes fans, highly recommended and I have been using it since .7 One music player to rule them all, a phenominal and consitent cross-platform experience, thank you.
AshBaby 6 years ago	5	Hated Ryhthmbox, Banshee, Amarok and exaile... now I find what I need. Does not crash or hang like buggy players, has lots of features, even simple one like file browser and library instead of only library.. is not too cpu hungry. The best.
regisbr 6 years ago	5	Grande! Melhor music player que já utilizei!!
opiumpoetry 6 years ago	5	best music player ever!
tommycarstensen 6 years ago	5	I switched to Clementine, because Banshee kept crashing on me. Clementine is one of the best players I have tried. My favorite music player remains Windows Media Player, but this one comes close! It has a lot of small but cool and significant features, that I have seen in no other player.
rich1974 6 years ago	5	best music player for linux.
RytronII 6 years ago	5	My favorite music player bar none.

dmwsdq 6 years ago	5	should replace banshee
lilEndian 6 years ago	5	Good for organizing, making playlists, and streaming. The fade in between files is a good addition. The ability to live without a main window is a plus.
Mintification 6 years ago	4	Not a bad media player, but not my favorite either. Altogether it does a good job of playing music.
SteveThePirate 6 years ago	5	Best Media Player on Linux, Best Interface and Features Available
linuxsapien 6 years ago	5	I use this every hour of my computing session! :D
ajantrik 6 years ago	4	Clementine works fine. But sometimes when I click on the menus, the submenu does not appear. I restart the app and all is well. Except this small bug, the player is really awesome and should be the default player of linuxmint.
BeatSmith 6 years ago	5	The closest thing to JetAudio I found on Linux. Simple app with library organization and internet radio player.
lair 6 years ago	5	perfect
rebelwriteruk 6 years ago	4	Downloaded version 1.0 from clementine website, works well on all my machines. organises and plays my music collection without problems . I've found however that tagging of music is best done with separate tagging software as clementine only writes ID3v1 but reads ID3 v1 and v2,
louder 6 years ago	5	My favorite music player.
pazoff 6 years ago	5	The best music player around!
Verix 6 years ago	5	The best around, hands down.

ppatalas 6 years ago	5	One of my favorites. A wonderfull music player/manager.
Cable 6 years ago	5	My favorite media player to use. Fun and cool features - as well as a sleek-looking interface.
ekimjs 6 years ago	5	Clementine is the BEST! simple but it's ROCKS!
nthucker 6 years ago	3	The idea is good, nice interface and features. Unfortunately suffers from techinical issues (on my machine anyway). Skipping tracks, high cpu usage, inability to co-operate when other apps are running at the same time. Will be awesome when they sort out those issues. Till then I'll stick with Banshee (they seem to have already been down the technical issue path and almost have it sorted)
