    There's a forum for each one.
    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?

    Use what's best FOR YOU...

    Download 2 or 3 frontends and try them on your home pc to get a feel for the packages. Don't forget you can change the look of a package by changing the frontend skin - there's plenty to choose from so go for functionality, then style.

    I started out with MediaEngine about 18 months ago, moved to Frodoplayer (and designed my own skin) about 6 months ago and I'm now considering using RoadRunner as it is developing fast into a stable application.

    Oh to be spoilt for choice...

    most of these front ends (except frodoplayer afaik) run their own built in solutions for media playback and some such. i know that Centrafuse runs its own code for everything but gps and radio.
