Quod Libet is a music management program. It provides several different ways to view your audio library, as well as support for Internet radio and audio feeds. It has extremely flexible metadata tag editing and searching capabilities.

Ex Falso is a tag editor with the same tag editing interface as Quod Libet, but it does not play files.

Supported file formats include Ogg Vorbis, MP3, FLAC, MOD/XM/IT, Musepack, Wavpack, and MPEG-4 AAC.
