About MOC (information, HOWTOs):
- Wiki about MOC (Gernam)
- http://polishlinux.org/apps/cli/moc-console-audio-player-for-linux/ - an introduction to MOC
- http://jakilinux.org/aplikacje/konsola/moc-muzyki-w-konsoli/ - same as above, but in Polish.

Optional libraries required by MOC:
- MAD - High-quality MPEG audio decoder, used for decoding MP3. It also contains libid3tag.
- Vorbis - Fully Open, non-proprietary, patent-and-royalty-free, general-purpose compressed audio format.
- FLAC - Free Lossless Audio Codec. From the home page:
Grossly oversimplified, FLAC is similar to MP3, but lossless, meaning that audio is compressed in FLAC without anyloss in quality.
- Speex - Patent-free audio compression format designed for speech.
- Musepack with taglib - Audio compression format with a strong emphasis on high quality.
- libsndfile - A library to read various audio formats like WAV, AIFF, SND etc.
- libcurl - for Internet streams.
- libresamplerate - for resampling.
- JACK - low-latency audio server.
- FFmpeg - Library for decoding various audio formats (WMA, ReadAudio, (.ra), AAC, MP4 in MOC).
- librcc - Library that can fix encoding of MP3 files with ID3 tags v1/1.1.
Other ncurses console players:
- playmp3list - MOC's interface is based on this mp3 player.
- mp3blaster - The most powerful player for console (beside MOC) I've ever seen, but in my opinion it has very unclear interface.
- PyTone - Python based player with internal and external pluggable players (like mpg123, xmms).
- cplay - a curses front-end for various audio players.
- Open Cubic Player - Old audio player, originally for DOS.
- CMus - Powerful music player with vi-style commands and interesting interface.
- mplay - Quite powerful frontend for MPlayer.
