I am a big musicmatch fan aswell, best player I have ever seen, the interface (especially 8) is very easy on the eyes. And the my media window, well not comparable to the atrocity(SP?) that is the counterpart in winamp. The only good thing about winamp is minimize to trey but that is what third party's are for.

I always thought of MusicMatch as sort of the AOL of media players....
that is, it's only for people who don't know any damn better.

Its made by real, they made the crappy real player too.

You know I think that becomes an assumption of any software program that starts to be bundled with absolutley everything, weather you want it or not. I thought the same, when I got my last PC and it was installed. I thought that before I removed it I would check it out, Hated it asked me to upgrade whenever I closed it, pissed me right off. I went looking areound for a better player - suffice to say after an hour i just grabbed a key and now it is my favorite player, and I would know better.

Musicmatch in a nutshell-
I don't know if winamp or jetaudio decode(play) mp3's at a higher quality than musicmatch, because I've never tried jetaudio or winamp, but I use gabest mpc all the time and mp3's sound the same in both musicmatch and gabest to me

Musicmatch 6.0 and x.0(i think 7.0) are noob friendly, yet the 6.0version offers the creation of music libraries, 160kbps cbr mp3 encoding with oversampling, some types of conversions between mp3 cbr/vbr,wma,wav, and easy tagging and cover thingys.

Bottom line:whether musicmatch comes bundled or not is feckin irrelevant. It's good for organizing and managing very large music collections. It's stable except if you try to make it play corrupted, badly encoded movies. As far as techincal specifications, others like winamp might be better and eac rules for ripping, but its interface is more likeable imo. I use it as my mp3 organizer, gabest as my default player, and eac for ripping.
