I think xmms is ugly, no matter what theme you put on it. RhythmBox is at least organized in a nice way.
Depends on how you see it; xmms is nice, small, and might not be pretty, but it works. RythmBox is big and slow to use with very large collections of files, but it is pretty.
It's a personal opinion, and there should be a choice for all. Sometimes there have to be compromises.
I for example would not be happy to loose Grip and xmms, but then again, I might be old fasion:-)

For a Gtk2 replacement of xmms, take a look at Beep Media Player:

It's in QA over at livna:

mp3 subpackage could be created if it's decided that it replaces xmms, or is included in Extras. It even uses the Bluecurve xmms skin :-)
