mpg321 was a Free replacement for mpg123, but there are no release since 2002.
mpg123 is now (L)GPL licensed and seems much more active, they just released 1.1.0 .
probably would make sense to move mpg123 in [extra] (it is in [community] now) and mpg321 in unsupported
This task depends upon

Well, technically this is a duplicate of  FS#6137 .
I support this request though, and there's a new maintainer of mpg321 now, so maybe his opinion is different.
