Are there any decent OS X audio players that can play FLAC?

When I tried the plugin before it didn't work. Guess I'll try it again with Tiger...

VLC's what I use now, but I'd like to be able to have the files in playlists.

Why not get xAct (free and fantastic) and convert those FLAC files to a format compatible with iTunes ? Then you have the ultimate combination of lossless format and ability to listen to is just like the rest of the music on your machine.

I may end up doing that, but I'd rather not have to as I have about 21 cds worth of FLAC files.

QuickTime plugin still doesn't work.
