I'd use the search, but it doesn't seem to be working right now.
Does anyone use Winamp 5? What do you think about it in comparison to previous versions? Is it the best one available at this time?
Thanks for your time, here's a random picture to show my appreciation:

hahahaha... it's good, if you have a fast system... it's a resource hog. winamp 2.91 is still the best all around winamp to date, in my opinion. i like to use winamp and itunes (i have an ipod).

| *pstt*No. Winamp5 is not a resource hog. It's pretty much Winamp 2.X with support for the 3.0 features (thats why it isn't 4.0 but 2+3=5.0) |

^^^^ Agreed. Although the load times suffer if you're using a pretty glitzy Winamp3 skin like MMD3 and the like. Besides that, It's only MARGINALLY more taxing on system resources as Winamp 2.91 was ;) |

i love the Echo skin only because it has the trasparent oscilliscope
which just makes me jizz all over myself |

uhhh.... yes it is... just compare the load times and the resources it uses... whatever... i can spare the resources... i'm just saying that it does use resources.... i dont give a crap, but it does.... just warning everyone out there... it's still damn good.

| Winamp 5 seemed great at first but then after a day it started doing weird things to my computer. First, the volume knob I use on my keyboard stopped working and then it started changing all the sound drivers. I had to update my driver just to get the sound working again. Then that little "volume control" icon in the taskbar went away and when I tried to open it from the start menu it said "Error: Mixer Device not available, etc." WTF? I did a system restore back one day just to get back to the way I had everythnig with Winamp 3.(thank God I set restore points automatically once a day, Thanks WinXP!) I think I'm going to wait for them to fix Winamp 5 up a little more before I install it again. |
