I have always favored the X Multimedia System, which lives in
/usr/ports/audio/xmms on 4.4-RELEASE. It plays CDDA, WAV, MP3, Ogg
Vorbis, any mod format playable through mikmod, and some others
depending on what plugins you've installed. It works like Winamp and
accepts Winamp skins (which rocks, IMHO), supports ID3 tag editing
for MP3 files and comment editing for Ogg Vorbis files, outputs to
/dev/dsp or ESD, and it quite easy to use.
