Winamp

What I like:
Plug-in's
Almost every plug-in available for Winamp has a review by a member of the Winamp "Staff", so you know what you are getting into before you DL and install.
I have a plug-in that allows my GPU to assist in rendering visualizations allowing for some awesome effects that just aren't possible with the CPU alone. I can set said visualization as my desktop background and even edit the code that governs the visualization.
I have a plug-in for global hotkeys. I can pause/play, stop, skip, etc... songs at anytime. Even when running games.
I have a plug-in that allows me to use Winamp as an alarm clock. Every morning I wake up to just the songs I want to hear.

File format support
It plays any song I have. If a new format comes out that isn't supported, it's just a matter of finding a plug-in for that format.

Multiple functions
I can use it to rip CD's, Burn CDs, edit tags, convert file formats, and calculate/apply replay gain.

What I don't like:
Hiccups
There are times when it freezes for a few seconds when I am typing in the search bar.

OS support
My laptop came with Vista and a few of the features in Winamp don't carry over. No Linux support but lets face it, if you use Linux this is no surprise and you should be used to such problems and their workarounds.

i just use windows media center or player =\

i enjoy people seeing it on msn
it works
no wasted space
etc

I use WMP9 since it comes with my computer and it opens my mp3 files by default.

It has all my needs because I usually just listen to mp3 files. Occasionally if I get m4a or some other codec Winamp fires up and plays it for me. I downloaded Winamp because I had to do internet DJ'ing but I found the interface to be quite hard to use (took me forever to find the plugins etc)

I also used iTunes for a while. But that was because I had to because of my iPod.

@ Vic: iTunes/Winamp have that MSN 'listening' plugin too.

i know but i dont like having that shit on here

WMP9, i too like how the feature displays your current music onto MSN messanger. Quite convient. I used to use WinAmp when i had a custom scheme, as well as itunes when i had a ipod.

i use WMP9 too =)

I'm going to give Jetaudio and Foobar2000 a try.

go right ahead!

I use windows media player. I just don't like Itunes. I only use Itunes for putting songs on my Ipod.

I guess I'm the loser x.x''' I use iTunes 7, but used to use WinAMP5 before I got my ipod, a while ago.

What do you like most about it?
I dunno, I don't have a problem with iTunes at all. It keeps my library clean and organized, and the small details make it worthwhile. I especially appreciate how easy it is to make a playlist compiled of anything you want, in 2 seconds. Displaying my album artwork in a gallery is always fun to play with too haha. Hooking up my ipod is convenient, I choose what goes in without any time or trouble. It plays any file format of song or movie I need, and IDtag and info is easy to edit. Not to mention, I like to include translated lyrics to most of my favourite J/K songs, which is really easy to do, too.

What don't you like/what's missing?
Unlike WinAMP (at least what I remember), I can't make a queue for song playback! Which sucks because I'm always jumping around my entire playlist. There's always Party/Song Shuffle, sure, but for those days when I want to listen to nothing but my absolutely favourite songs, or just mood songs... ick. >.<
I don't really get an option of different skins either, which is meh. My friend has his WinAMP skin set to an animated, moving thing of Haro from Gundam SEED/Des, which is sweet haha.

If so, im a loser too.
I use iTunes 7, for two reasons: 1. i use a mac, so its the default one. 2. I love it.

I already used on my pc days winamp, foobar, wmp, KMP Player, and a lot more, but iTunes is the only one that somehow, does what i want to.

@Kinsei:
About the shuffle/favourite songs, you can make a smart playlist with for example, your *** + (three stars plus) rated musics, and one playlist ONLY with your favourites... you just have to switch, using that way.

Good material here: http://james.cridland.net/blog/2007/01/ ... ter-music/ (its about nano auto-filling, but it uses that playlist method.)

As an Ipod user, i think i dont have what to complain about iTunes... really. I dont like changing skins, or things like that, so im happy with my iTunes. :P

KMP Player is the second one on my favs,
heres a link: http://www.kmplayer.com
It uses an engine like winamp, but it is bundled with ALL codecs you would ever need (both video + audio) , yet it is pretty ram-friend.

I use Itunes7 because i have a ipod but use to use Winamp

I use jetAudio.
It plays many file formats as well as video (as long as you have the codec).
I like it how it opens the video in a separate window and I also like it docked at the bottom of my screen just above my taskbar.
I must say that the customizable hotkeys are extremely useful.
It comes with useful features like file conversion, trimming, ripping etc.
The only thing is that it doesn't support unicode
Using to play DVDs isn't that good of an idea either.

Other than that, it is a very good and convenient mediaplayer I would recommend to all.

i use windows media player...^^ i think it has the best sound. able to display lyrics too, it helps a lot for me. i f only mine could read japanese kanji, it would be perfect X{ does anyone know how i can make it able to read kanji?? lol xD

if not wma, i usually use winamp. i have great skins for it and it can read japanese kanji.. but the sound isn't so satisfying..

i use iTunes once..but it confused me xD lol
