The closest thing I found to a good media player was quodlibet(prismriver ~~steals~~ borrows heavily from it), but it had some problems causing me to make prismriver:

python takes up too much memory
no .cue sheet support (a problem I have encountered with every single linux media player)

so I wrote prismriver to fix these problems.

There are still some issues/features that I need to fix/add:

more options for columns
better handling of lastfm when offline
ratings + weighted shuffle

Install/Setup:
qmake; make; make install
edit ~/.prismriver/config and set library folder and last.fm info
run prismriver
`prismriver updatedb` to update db
