There are any number of MIDI players for Unix operating systems. I'm not
sure of its status, but Apple is meant to have a Quicktime for Java,
which would increase its portability a great deal. The remaining
question, of course, is whether Quicktime for Java is as good and
featureful as a native code implementation.
