I use the CentOS repos with the yum-priorities plugin, and then rpmforge. Everything that is not provided, I do either: 1) check out Fedora Core 6 SRPMs and build the binary package on my system. See the WiKi page for how to build packages as normal user. 2) And if I can't find it there (example: xmms-wma), I check out the .spec file in the freshrpms repo, download the corresponding source, and that does the job.
