Resource friendly MP3 Player

Is winamp the best way to go? I don't need any visualizations. Just something with a playlist that won't bog down my games.

I would love to hear about the RAM usage of FOOBAR and WinAmp (latest versions of both) over in the Freeware bloatfree alternatives to bloated programs thread.

FLAC's use 35 mb of RAM, and MP3's use 29 mb of RAM. Album art, columns UI, pretty popup and browser plug-ins all in use.
