And of course, since I am using Basilisk, it needs to be *9k freindly and not PPC.

MPLAY has a 68K version:
http://www.mp3machine.com/software/MPLAY/
But based on the comments posted, it might be hard to get.
So maybe try this:
http://www.mp3machine.com/software/MpegDec/
Or just look around that site.

The 68k version of Mplay is not capable of playing mp3s.
You can try either:
ftp://hyperarchive.lcs.mit.edu/pub/info ... 11-68k.hqx
or
ftp://hyperarchive.lcs.mit.edu/pub/info ... ec-253.hqx.
Both programs convert the mp3 to AIFF format before playback begins.
You may have to reduce the sample rate to get acceptably smooth quality.

I don't know what you mean about converting to AIFF before playback begins.
MpegDec and Mpg123 for 68k macs are just your usual mp3 players and just play a mp3 through the audio hardware.
MpegDec is faster and has more features than Mpg123.
MpegDec can also convert the mp3 to a AIFF file as an option.
