 | Like all things in my life, Winamp 2 decided crashed on me one time too many, so I uninstalled its ass. Trouble is, I
 don't know any other reliable audio players, can someone
 recommend me one that ISN'T a stinking bucket of useless
 wee-wee?

 | If you want to be cool, you could try foobar2000. It is by one of the original authors of Winamp.
 
 Don't expect a lot of eye candy, but it has some very nifty
 features.

 | If you're having major problems with Winamp 2 then I have to say it's probably your system or a plugin at fault, rather
 than Winamp itself, which is, given the amount of use it
 gets with most people, one of the most stable apps around.

 | If your computer is so fucked up that Winamp 2 is unstable, maybe it's time to upgrade or reinstall your sound card
 drivers - or even reinstall Windows, especially if you are
 using 95/98/Me.
 
 Winamp 2 is just not a crashy program.
 
 IMHO WMP is bloated trash and realplayer is  - words fail me
 - :P

 | Winamp 2, Winamp 3. They're both great, and I make love to them on an hourly basis.
 
 Winamp 3 was devestated at some of the remarks it read on

 | It's designed as a small and fast audiophile player. There's no built-in EQ as far as I know. It supports most open and
 semi-open formats but I'm pretty sure its author wouldn't
 touch wma or real audio with a 10' bargepole.

 | Verty, can that thing read CD audio directly through the IDE interface or does it need one of those wee wires connected
 between your sound card and CD player? I can only listen to
 CDs on Winamp because my sound card doesn't have that
 interface and only Winamp (that I know of) supports direct
 read.

 | Actually there is a CDDA add-on thingy from the main download page that should add CD playback. I tried it and it
 works fine. I wouldn't have a clue if it does what you need.
 It's a pretty small download though if you wanted to try it.

 I reinstalled the latest Winamp 2, only to discover the same
 fucking problem. HELP! Whenever I close it, a box comes up
 that says 'Winamp has caused an error in KERNEL.32.DLL' what
 the fuck is that??? I click 'Okay' and the box
 reappears...over and fucking over, then when I shut my comp
 down it stays on the same sorry ass black screen with a
 flashing underscore in the top-left corner, every single
 time. Why does Winamp hate me??

 | 2K, XP. 
 95/98/ME kernels are shite, m8.
 
 i don't think the problem's with winamp; it's either your
 windows installation's rooted (windows itself, shitty
 driver, spyware/viruses doing strange shit, who knows), or
 you've got a hardware issue.
 
 might be time to reinstall..
