VLC media player

I tried out VLC today (of course, not for the first time) and it played .wma files in openSUSE 11.0 even though Amarok which had excess to the very same codecs, couldn't.
However, it seems more difficult to get VLC to play a complete album (although I'll need to research this more thoroughly). Plus I don't see any way to play Last.Fm on VLC.
