Just not a fan of the microsloth product... Winamp 3 is pretty, but 2.81 has the best functionality.
IMHO

Both are reasonable, especially in the playlist department i must admit, but for just playing a few quick songs neither compares to the original Sonique.. v1.95 or whatever. Winamp3 creates too many windows, and mp9.. just never a fan of media player i guess with the exception of v6.4 :-)

Im to paranoid about playing my mp3's with wmp9 you never know with M$ they could be spying on your system and stuff, I know that if you run DIVX movies or svcds for some reason it requests a codec, errors, but still plays. You never know what M$ is doing when it requests that CODEC. Winamp 3 is a little slow for my tastes, and it kind of works slow, I.e loading tracks, and chaning skins, and has crashed on more than one occassion. I would stick with Winamp 2.81 the previous versions, nothing can beat that player...

As much as I hate it, I'd rather stick to WA3 then go with Microsoft.
