good mp3 player?

winamp 3.0 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

Re: good mp3 player?
 

Perhaps WinAmp 2.9 instead of 3.0, actually. Not all of the changes in 3.0 are necessarily good, so I suggest you try both out, and see which one you prefer.

Re: good mp3 player?
 

Indeed. I got winamp 2.78 and it's the best mp3 player I've ever used. But that's just MHO. I'm upgrading to the newest Version as I type this.

Slow Computer - Anything else than winamp 3
Fast Computer - Winamp 3 or bust.

Why? long loading time.

I don't like how the mp3 ID tags are handled in WinAmp 3.0. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: good mp3 player?
 

ID tags? I don't need no stinkin' ID tags!

I DO, however, have some nifty presets for the winamp's AVS. Just holler if you want 'em.

So why upgrade at all?

Good question. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

I need something not resource consuming. i couldnt care less about animation and stuff plugins, what i need is something *small* to stick to the top of the screen. i'll try Winamp. Hate WMP.

Re: good mp3 player?
 

Get WinAmp 2.91 or whatever the Last 2.x Version was. It consumes a lot less memory than 3.0 does.

Re: good mp3 player?
 

WinAmp before v.3 is best and not resource consuming. Get a skin (I don't remember exact name of it but there was something like 'OneBit' or 'OneByte' Amp). What is nice about it - it's FREE! and kicking http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

or even use the software that came with you sound card.

FreeAmp is good as well.

I have some 1300 + mp3s so i had to switch to musicmatch for the organizational abilites. I love all the avs/plugins for winamp though, and i still load up playlists for some geiss fun all the time. Does winamp 3 have good library controls so you can find easily and sort by multiple categories? also, winamp doesn't have (or at least i'm pretty sure) burner support.

o and the supper tagging feature of Musicmatch is a joke, it comes up with various artist/some blues or country artist and then the albumn title is various artists. I can never tag tracks except when its a real cd, and in that case i don't need it.

Re: good mp3 player?
 

Yeah, WinAmp3 has good library controls and filing system. I don't do anywhere close to as many MP3's as you do though. So, for 1500+ MP3's, it might be that good. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif
