XMMS?  Never actually tried it on Solaris (I don't have access to
suitably fast suns for MP3s, never cared to try CDs on Suns), but they
have a Sun audio plugin.  I know that XMMS works well on Irix (O2s and
Onyxs).

BTW, what desktop environment are you using?  You might try Ximian Gnome
for Solaris.  Whatever you do, don't put enlightenment on an O2 (someone
did that at school and it is soooo slow).
