Pros
Pro Does not use a lot of memory
Cmus only uses about 15 MB. This is a very small and light media player, which is ideal for people with low end hardware.
Know any positive aspects of this option?
Cons
Con CLI only
No graphical interface is available for cmus. Everything is done through CLI (command line interface).
Con Difficult to use
Cmus uses odd keyboard shortcuts such as "C" to pause, "E" to add songs to queue, and "4" to edit the queue.

Straight away trying to play a wavepack file, it complained - as do many other Linux players, unlike Deadbeef, Guayadeque, or Quodlibet. So 'lightweight' doesn't mean 'full featured', just a lighter replacement from the simpler GUI players I guess...
