I own a Samsung YP-MT6. It works without problem
If anyone is using any other mp3 player with Debian, it would be great
if you could mention your models.

I'm a fan of noatun, the kde media player. It has a nice tray interface, and
a plugin for global key shortcuts. It is also very convenient if you are
running kde, because it works through the normal kde sound server (which xmms
can do too, iirc, but it requires a plugin).

Hi,
to play mp3s i use xmms, which i love.
It can use winamp skins. It used to be called X11Amp.
xmms has a plugin that can record a track into a .wav file (disk writer
plugin). I think it can write from any source it can read from (eg
cd/mp3/wav/etc...)

To rip CD's, use the command-line tool cdparanoia. It will do the best job
