Nullsoft has a Windoze version of Amp (WinAmp), which I use now and then
(but mpg123 is better, i.e. faster, and it runs under My Favourite OS  :)
I'm not sure if a DOS version is there. In any case, porting the UNIX
version should be "trivial" -- since Linux just assumes that the sound
port is a file, and it dumps the waveform there. You'll just have to
modify the PCM output part to take care of DOS' nonexistent native sound
support.
