Neither is true. KDE 3.5 will have arts as the only general multimedia
api. Individual apps may use other backends directly, for example:
JuK - akode, gstreamer
Amarok - gstreamer, xine, helix
KDE 4 will have new kdemm framework which can use different backends at
user will - arts/gstreamer/xine/akode/etc. The first draft (only arts
backend for now) was commited to the subversion repository last week -
