VLC, MPlayer, and MacAmp should all work.

You can just drop the folder on the playlist window in MacAmp Lite X. Not sure if that's what you want, though.

Why else would I tell you that? Did you even try it? Drag a folder full of MP3s onto the VLC icon and it will create a playlist and begin playing them.

Seriously, why ask for suggestions if you aren't going to try them?

Sorry about that. I was more puzzled than offended. I hope it works out for you.
