Many of us have never been able to get Rhythmbox to work due to the mp3 issue
and the need for additional downloads, etc.

When I've tried, I've noticed that Rhythmbox takes an amazingly long time to
handle large volumes of music.  10,000+ tracks plus, or example.  The irony is
that this size collection is exactly where Rhythmbox's music managment would
probably be superior to other programs..

So in the short term, many of us use xmms because it's there and it works.
