I recently switched from winamp to foobar and I must say I dont think Im going back anytime soon. It took about 5 seconds to start winamp, even with classic skin and I stripped all of the useless plugins which was all of the plugins. Foobar on the other hand starts up in about a second and can be customized a lot if you want to.
I used foobar for a long time and I really like it... But I had to constantly fix my configuration and had some oter minor problems and got bored of it! Now, I just love Winamp!
looks like winamps winning the race..lolz...
even with added configs n stuff it hardly takes anytime to open up....
u can find some cool configs for foobar at deviantart.com and hydrogenaudio.com
Trying foobar now, will update on how it performs later.
Edit: Pretty decent player, default skin looks cheapo, doesn't have mini mode which I love about winamp. Foobar is OK, but I've been using winamp for ages, going to take a good player to get me away.

I voted for winamp. I tried foobar like a year ago, but the thing is too complex..all the plugins, the customizing options, preferences...etc. I just want a Audio player I'm sure it's a cool app..but I'm not giving up my winamp 3 for anything atm
If you only want audio player, then isnt basic foobar good? I use the basic layout with album list and its great. I dont really use album art plugins or something that slows it down. Keep it fast and clean.
If you want skin with very nice eyecandy then check out the FofR link below. It provides DL links to plugins and tells you if you're missing something. Very easy to install.
