VLC is on there, actually. But yeah, the Phonon VLC backend was a little later, but is now the preferred one. The gstreamer backend is still improving, though, and has worked fine for Amarok playback. I hope after GST 1.0 comes out (fingers crossed for this year), it will eventually become the default backend for Phonon.
