Using 2.91 here, I like it.

iTunes baby.

I use foobar2000 for audio and Media Player Classic for video. Both programs are minimalistic and highly functional.

Player has been around for ages. I think I first started using their CD player in ....'98?

thanks for those links to winamp 5

I made it into a news post

 

[RagingBITCH]

5 is pretty sweet so far. Don't notice an audio difference but maybe it's b/c I'm still using a Regular SB Live!

2.71 is the one I think I have.. won't change cause I won't fix was is not broken.

cause three sucked so bad that they wanted to merge parts of 2 and 3 to make 5?

ooh yeah .. cause Japanese associate 4 with death

It's true in Japan. "4" -- pronounced "Shi" is synonymous with "Death." It's avoided in many cases as the number 13 is avoided here in America (i.e. hotels have floor 12 then 14).

Here's a link with some other interesting superstitions: http://mothra.rerf.or.jp/ENG/Hiroshima/Things/68.html

winamp 5 here. i think its awesome.

 

[IEatChildren]

I thought the reason they didn't make a 4 was sort of like Leisure Suit Larry, where they said they wouldn't make a 4 but they did anyway, so that called it 5 instead.

I've recently become a big fan of foobar.

2.91 here... almost sublime program

1.82 when it first came out with the nitrate decoder or whatever was pretty hot. 3.x is junk. 5.x looks too fancy. every other player sucks

Foobar > *

 

[Jeff7181]

I use 2.66 but I rarely use it now that I have my Zen NX

 

[TheNinja]

I'm using WinAmp v2.5e b/c it's what I downloaded a long time ago. It seems to play my MP3's and CD's fine so why would I download a newer version?

 

[OIKOS]

sorry... no mp3s
