I have been using Ultraplayer for .mp3s, and just downloaded Winamp today. Can't see a lot of difference so far...did someone say you could normalize the volume of tracks in Winamp?

Win Amp 3 is said to take more processing power and memory than Win Amp 2.
3 has got some other skins, I like the default one, and a couple of other functions you don't get with 2, but basically it's a matter of preference (or getting Win Amp 5, which has the good parts of both 2 and 3).
MMJB isn't bad, mine (which I got a long time ago) came with the options to convert wav to mp3 and the other way around, it made for easy cd rips(it was the first such proggie I tried).
There used to be another player I liked called sonique, but I haven't tested the later versions so I don't know how good it is today.

Media Center 9 from J River. MC9 (http://www.jriver.com/mediacenter)

yesterday iTunes (MAC) came out for PC and i downloaded it and it is f*cking awsome...a nice program (yes even though im not the biggest mac fan) they still make some awsome programs...so if your sick of winamp or whatever you use goto www.apple.com and get iTunes for PC...

I guess people like Winamp cuz it was the first well known, well supported, non-Microsoft media player.
Remember when WMP wouldn't play mp3's without gettting a third-party codec?
I have both Winamp2 & Winamp3. I only have Winamp2 around for the "Generate HTML Playlist" feature, when I want to
easily publish a playlist to put online. Like others, I listen to my music elsewhere, mostly, & if I'm listening to it in my machine,
it's usually with headphones....so I don't really care about teriffic sound quality. I just stick with Winamp cuz I know it, and have
seen no persuasive reason to change.

If you like iTunes, then you will love Media Center. Here is a screen shot:

I was using Jet Audio for the longest cause I preferred the sound quality compared to Winamp 2.xx or 3...until yesterday i found out about the dfx plugin for Winamp so now Im back to using Winamp 3, it REALLY improves the sound! I tried the Izotope Ozone audio enhancer but I prefer the DFX better...
Posted by: sparsely
I'm gonna go check out this DFX thing...

Winamp 2 (with the skin that was modeled after the radio from the movie Frequency.)

QCD ---> http://www.quinnware.com/img/dn/download.gif (http://www.quinnware.com/)
Just try it, when you listen to internet radio with QCD it sounds 10 times better then Winamp. Winamp has more plug-ins, but i still prefer QCD.
BTW: I bet 5 out every 10 persons that say "winamp" has not even tried another player <_<

;) It only uses Audio CDs...MP3s no good.
I am on hold with my Database.....WinAMP 5 does not work properly and no other Player is either except WinAMP 3.And it has too many BUGs...takes to long to load.

some do but soem don't I guess :huh:

What problems have you had with Winamp5 FC? I know its a beta, but it seems to run okay on my machine. I really don't like it as much as WMP for XP, but it still does the job. ;)

QCD - IMO it's the best music player you can get. Coupled with JetAudio for videos, you can't get much better :D
I tried Winamp, but quite frankly I prefer QCD as I know due to the quality of the playback and nearly every plug-in is coded relatively great (Some I've seen for Winamp3 have been buggy to say the least :unsure:). That, and affiliation with AOL put me right off for a long time :rolleyes:

It looks pretty good so far, but I don't really know how to use it yet.
