This can be down to a number of reasons, but a common case is either down to a duplication of functionality, or because they're simply too specialised. Perhaps the most popular occurence however is that the developers themselves may not want it to appear in the main &tde; distribution; choosing, rather, to handle their own release schedules. Nevertheless, the applications in Extragear are distinguished by &tde;, and many are increasingly popular.</para> - -<sect1 id="extragear-components"> -<title>Available in the &tde; Extragear</title> - -<!-- Begin Multimedia --> -<sect2 id="extragear-multimedia"> -<title>Multimedia</title> - -<variablelist> -<varlistentry> -<term>&amarok;</term> - <listitem><para>An advanced and comprehensive music player with the capability to play <acronym>MP3</acronym>, <acronym>WAV</acronym>, and <acronym>OGG</acronym> audio filetypes and others.
