First of all, I should say that I havn't used that many modules as of yet. Those that I have used had fairly decent documentation. So I am working on trying to do an MP3 player application (a jukebox of sorts), and I'd like to use the MAD libraries (for sound/sample quality).

I have the module installed, and everything seems to be working smoothly. I'm referencing the documentation (Read: cpan's Documentation), and I guess I just don't exactly understand it.

All I want to do is play song "test.mp3". Once I get that working, then I'll build up the jukebox around it with my playlists and what-not. The documentation for this module isn't very good, in my opinion.

On a side note, I'm using Audio::Play::MPG123 with mpg321, a replacement for mpg123 (confusing), which is symbolically linked on my machine. But I'm sure you would agree that it would be best to use the libraries directly. Any help, as always, would be appreciated.
