Is Winamp Dead?

[Mark_Wallace]

QMP or VLC, depending on which machine I'm on. Anything with more than three letters in its name is just too much trouble.

I mostly use Pandora these days, but still keep this mp3 player up to date: 1by1 It doesn't require playlists; looks like Windows Explorer - point to a folder and hit play.

These days I find WMP does the job just fine.

I am the one that is still using it. I like to listen to my mp3ed CDs(*). because Winamp works fine. Why should I change? (*) YES, I'm also the one that still buys CDs. Because I think the artists deserve to be paid.

My iPod for music (or on occasion, iTunes, which I'm pretty much locked into because I use an iPod Touch), and for video Media Player Classic.

Artists barely see any of that money, if you want to artist to get paid, go to a concert, that's where they make most of their money. (I do buy CDs however, because I can put the music on any player I want, at any quality I want, without DRM.)

I like PottPlayer[^] for video. I have been using Media Monkey, but I don't like the current version - they eliminated the arrow keys for jumping forward & backward. :((

Well, I have the Winamp app on my phone, and it's certainly still being worked on. I dunno. I prefer Winamp myself. Maybe I'm more a creature of habit than previously though.

I thought I was the only one! So, you too? :D

To bad those artist only get a very small percentage of that money. I buy mostly for the artwork and the reasons mentioned by lewax. I do, however, refuse to pay 20 euro's for any music cd. I wait until they get cheaper (say <= 10 euro's) or I buy second hand :D I only pay the full new price for very few artists that I REALLY like (Underworld, Summoning, The Devil's Blood, Urfaust...) :)

Winamp! It really kicks the lama's ass! (I believe it was)... It has its flaws, but I can't find anything better. Although I haven't really looked beyond the obvious (WMP, iTunes, Foobar...). All I can do is safely say Winamp is A LOT better than the three I just mentioned :) I'm looking at MediaMonkey right now and it looks promising. Going to try it out! :thumbsup:
