I used to use Windows media player, and still have nothing against it, but i like winamp too. One advantage that windows media player has is its toolbar. How i miss that

But winamp can play a gajillion filetypes. And that is a bonus indeed.

winamp

why:spiffy interface(classic,just like my desktop),better visuals,INTERNET TV + radio, playlist editing,and lots more control over everything it does

windoze media player (new)

why not:media player classic does *nearly* everything it does without the bloat(playlists etc,which add bloat and I have no use for)

I have not tried winamp. I use mostly Windows media player. I have iTunes, being that its a necessity for using an iPod, but I don't really like it, mainly because it too is quite buggy and the whole 'library; system frequently ends up glitching and creating multiple entries for the same artist etc and doing other such things that are easily avoided with a (properly) used Win Media.

Winamp is still my preferred player, but anything after the 2.91 release was bloated and sluggish.

Quintesential Player.

After hovering around a load of media players, I picked this as my preference.

It's good.

Like, really good.
