Description

Plays MPEG audio files from the terminal, including common MP3 audio layers. It is useful for scripts, lightweight systems, remote sessions, or users who prefer command-line playback.

Use it when you need a simple audio player without a graphical music library. Playback depends on terminal commands and the system audio output configuration.
