Yes!  I've got a great method I can recommend for mpg123.

My BSD box has no monitor, no XFree, but it has 80 gigs of MP3s
and a great set of speakers hooked up to it.

I ssh into it from whatever room in the house I'm in and use
one of these commands.  (Aliased from ~/.bashrc)

# MP3
alias play='ls -l1 *.mp3 > ALL.m3u && mpg123 --list ALL.m3u'
alias playnew='ls -tl1 *.mp3 > ALL.m3u && mpg123 --list ALL.m3u'
alias playr='ls -l1 *.mp3 > ALL.m3u && mpg123 -z --list ALL.m3u'

IN OTHER WORDS:

cd /mp3/AcidJazz
play         # <-- plays in alphabetical order
playnew      # <-- plays newest-dated MP3s first
playr        # <-- plays in random order!

I have like 20 gigs of JAZZ in one folder, so it's wonderful
to just type "cd /mp3/jazz && playr" and have it play randomly
all day long as I program.
