Melody

Melody is an audio playback application designed for Linux systems, focusing on local music libraries, online radio streams, and physical compact discs. The software provides a straightforward interface for organizing and listening to audio collections stored directly on the user device without relying on cloud services. Users can load standard local audio formats, tune into internet radio stations, and play tracks straight from inserted optical media.

The application is distributed under the GNU General Public License version 3.0 or later, allowing users to modify and redistribute the source code under the same terms. Its design centers on routine audio playback tasks rather than advanced mixing or transcoding, making it suitable for standard desktop listening sessions where resource efficiency and simplicity are prioritized.
