You can do that with the programs mentioned above.  But why do you need a 
notification to figure out that you don't like a track?

It does have features other than notifications? :)

Maybe you need to make a bug report?  I can't say much about this because I'm 
not using audacious; and I can only guess it may be a problem with audacious 
rather than with notifications because when you can have a dialog with 
buttons, that's a dialog and not a notification.

Since you like notifications, have you found a way to configure the duration 
of notifications?  I'd like a list of notifications that have come up during, 
for example, the last 24 hours (or whatever time period I configure).  I could 
browse the list when I want and optionally prevent the notifications from 
bothering me.

This is especially useful for things that take a while, like it can take quite 
a while to copy a few GB of files from one computer to another.  The way 
dolphin does it, I have to wait for the notification to show up or otherwise I 
might never see it because the notification is nowhere to be found anymore.

And I can tell you that a file manager that won't show the progress and won't 
even show you whether an operation has been completed or not sucks really 
badly.
