Unsurprising given that their repo's license was a contradictory mess

Anyways I'd recommend using Strawberry instead

It's an actual Free and Open Source music player:

Strawberry doesn't support about a dozen audio formats I use, so until it's got wider support I have to pass.

You get your music from GIMP?

Ten chiptune formats, two other videogame music formats (.at3 and .mab), WMA, IT, AAC, MP2, and MIDI.
