Audio player
-
In the past week I've tried many different free audio players - from iTunes to Winamp to MusicCubeOne - and the one I keep coming back to is VUPlayer. It obviously doesn't have the features of iTunes, but its memory footprint is the smallest of any of the ones I tried - less than 10Mb, compared with ~30Mb for iTunes and ~20Mb for WMP (when playing). It doesn't have the slickest UI, but its UI is functional, and it also supports music lookup via freedb server (which I could never get to work in Winamp). The only thing I don't like about VUPlayer is that it doesn't fully support multiple monitors - if you move it to the second monitor and then exit, it will pop up on the first monitor when you restart it. What's your favorite audio player?
I used to use a program called RadLight, but now I find BSPlayer is much nicer! http://www.bsplayer.org/ Christopher

Windows Media Player is good. Isn't it?

It has to be JetAudio for me. Simple, and it doesn't take up much room on your screen in the compact mode :)

I use Foobar2000 for general music playback. I only load up iTunes to put stuff on my iPod, though if FB wasn't around I'd probably use it for playback as well, I find it less annoying than WMP.

Can't believe I'm the first to say Foobar... Foobar for my regular music collection, winamp for quick dirty playback for files that I don't want to drag into my foobar playlists.
