My advice, for what it is worth...

Go to livna and install the rpms to use their yum repo. This page says how to 
install

http://rpm.livna.org/rlowiki/UsingLivna

after this, livna is included in your yum repos. 

livna contains all the stuff that could not be included in the standard FC 
install for various license reasons (depending on your country etc.)

To find out what is available, I recommend not using the command line ("yum 
search XXX" is not the most user friendly), but some GUI. I use yumex

 > yum install yumex

then fire up yumex.

and try searching for packages with, say "mp3" "ugly" "free" etc. in the 
names.

cheers Chris
