If you're using Gnome you probably already have Rhythmbox installed. To install software in FC6 open a terminal and type:

su -

su space dash

Give the root password and type:

yum install packagename

For example:

yum install banshee

If you're not used to the command line then use the GUI tool called 'Add/Remove Software' located in your menu.

Edit: you may have to setup extra repos to get some software. Read my FC6 update to Stanton Finley's guide for multimedia and codecs:

May I suggest you compile banshee from source, since the one in the fedora repo is horribly out of date. Plus, the latest version is very much improved and better to use.

is it possible to select a different back-end (gstreamer, helix, xine) for banshee in fc6?
