i'm currently using winamp3 for playing my files, the problem is, that program really is shit. slow and annoying and everything and it crashes every hour or so.
now, i can do nice compilations with it and the search functions are pretty nice too. i gotta lot of files, all sorted and so but keeping track of everything can be quite difficult.
my question is, does anyone have a player with a good library, where you can create your playlists and stuff just as in winamp, but that works?
i got musicmatch for tagging purposes but that one is not good for large libraries

I just stuck with Winamp 2.81, it's perfect. Didn't move up to 3 because of the shit I heard about it.

Winamp 2 is pretty good. It's like winamp 3 without the bloat and instability. They still maintain it with bugfixes and such, probably for people who don't have the 3 gigahertz processors and terabytes of ram that winamp 3 requires.

Play with it for more then 5 mins. It may take a little getting used to but it's worth it IMO.

i have that one also. you can play songs nicely and everything but functionality is pretty short. i liked the features of wa3 but it takes like 5 min for startup and it hardly ever does what i want

I'm the other way around me. I think every version of Winamp blows. I've always preferred using Sonique. You can use all kinds of plugins on that too but mostly everything you need is there after the install. I hate Winamp but I must admit that Sonique is very graphical which can cause problems sometimes. Best way is to try both.

One of my favorite winamp plugins is the direct CD reader - it reads digital data off your CDs right through the IDE cables, instead of taking the signal through the wee wire that goes from the CD drive to the sound card.

*grins* I never saw that. :>
Once you get used to it you can customise it in the many ways. I'll only ever use Sonique.

Musicmatch is pretty good if you have a large collection of MP3s, as you can organise them into genre/album/track title/anything else you want really. I must admit though that I have recently moved back to Winamp 2, as I got a bit too obsessed with organising MP3s . . . Winamp 3 sucks shit.
