just a few mins ago wmp crashed with an error message saying something about my computer clock saying the year is 2114 and wmp recognising that as incorrect, however my computer clock only goes upto 2099 and even on 2099 wmp works...how weird, any thoughts?

Hahaha!
No, I've just had a lot of trouble with it in the past. mp3s wouldn't play because it couldn't decode them yet it would play the next one in the folder. After an update the situation would swap or it would play even less files. Admittedly I haven't tried the latest version but I'm happy with Winamp :)

haha oh god
using windows media player to play mp3s?
get real. don't do it... download winamp, or even better, winamp classic.
using media player for playing videos is barely excusable, for mp3s it's just stupid....

wmp 10 works fine if you get the strangely titled: K-lite Codec Pack.
I mainly use wmplayer/quicktime and realplayer alternate which plays everything and doesn't infiltrate your system with shit.

what's with australians being clueless when it comes to this sort of shit?
wmp is incredibly bloated ms bullshit.
winamp for mp3s. quick and easy. videolan for videos. quick and easy and it comes with all the codecs.
quicktime and realplayer if you really really have to. realplayer is an evil piece of software.

I used to use it all the time for everything. And overtime i became comfortable with it. Now i must say that WinAmp does me wonders.

wmp works just fine (mp3 or video). the only problem i see with it is the system it uses for tagging files. i think it doesn't use ID3 but some weird database that doesn't alter the info inside the file itself.
It still organizes your media pretty nice.
and winamp 5 sucks. winamp classic's cool but doesn't have library. anyway. wmp is just fine.
