[Sid59]

i loaded a few tonite on the 2nd rig and want to test them for usability, how pretty they are, if they ruin your tags and filenames.

I am currently using either Winamp 2.91 or 5. It depends which computer I am using. I have also used Foobar. I like the kernel streaming feature in it but I still use Winamp for almost everything.

Especially if you have an ipod.

I'm stuck on Winamp5. It's still has the most support of any player out there with a lot of flexibility. I tried foobar and thought it sounded nice, but the interface was just horrendous. Winamp is a piece of cake.

same, foobar is simple to use, and i praise it, but winamp takes home the gold, jet audio is nice too but too tricky and complacated, i want my player to be simple to the point and small, i tried cool player but its ugly, maybe someone can help me i forgot how to fix this, everytime i try and play a folder with x songs in it, with winamp, i click play all, and only one song goes on the playlist??? im using winxp pro, anyone help??

 

[Doh!]

foobar for listening to my collections, winamp 5 for listening to some radio stations occasionally.

Still on winamp 2.91 will upgrade whenever I want something new, but now it's docked up in my app-bar on top (using transparantFX plugin) and I dont really see a reason to change to 5 or check out foobar.
