ET Warrior Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Just curious what the rest of you swampies use to listen to the music you have on your computer. I just got a new laptop and am looking for your recommendations, so if you could list what you like and dislike about the players you use that would be super.
Acrylic Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 I use iTunes for albums that I ripped on the computer, and Winamp for my other MP3's.
Rogue15 Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 I use winamp. anything else is just a ram hog. *cough*WMP*cough*
StormHammer Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 iTunes and Winamp. I like the net radio stations under Winamp. I purchase some tracks through iTunes.
Sabretooth Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 WinAMP 5 is the best choice for music. It's easy, doesn't munch on your ram, it gives crystal-clear quality along with a few a goodies and more stuff. For video, I use RealPlayer, as it can support almost all formats available under the sun.
lukeiamyourdad Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 For video, WinAmp also does the job quite nicely but IMO, the best for me is VLC Media Player.
Astrotoy7 Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 i really dont have the time or inclination to sit and listen to music much on my compy....so have never bothered tp install anything like winamp etc.. wmp plays whatever i need in the rare occasions i do play anything. but winamp has some sexy skins mtfbwya
jon_hill987 Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Winamp, Winamp, Winamp. I can't believe there are people that use iTunes.
Lightsaberboy Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 musicmatch jukebox. >_> <_< *walks away slowly*
BCanr2d2 Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Winamp here too, got used to it right at the start with 2, and have stayed with it ever since. Sometimes I think of trying something else, but my collection doesn't lend itself to using a player with a media library as it's main interface. I have had my playlist at least 2-3 years, have just added to it. At times I let it run and go through the rest of my list - 50 or so hrs later!!
Tokarev Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 And of course I use winamp here. The sound is better, the interface is real easy to use compared to the scattered interface of WMP, and it kicks the lamas ***!
txa1265 Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Originally posted by jon_hill987 Winamp, Winamp, Winamp. I can't believe there are people that use iTunes. Why? Because it is the best integrated music store, ripper and player, has lots of cool features, and sync's with the music player >75% of the world is using? I use WinAMP and iTunes. Mike
Pie™ Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 ^^^^^^ 2666th post for Bongo \m/ I use iTunes, because I like the library interface, I guess...
SkinWalker Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Winamp. I even do most of my video stuff with Winamp. For all the reasons already given.... You can even catch some cool internet TV with it. I think I've seen all of Penn & Teller's BS. I once had Stargate running for a whole weekend on my computer... drove my wife nuts
Hermie Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 I use iTunes, Winamp has always appeared pretty messy to me.
Jared Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 I use winamp, I've used real player, itunes...windows media player...and winamp is by far the best..in my opinion...I still use WMP when i have to though. Cause sometimes winamp crashes because I have so much music...heh.
ZBomber Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 I also use Windows Media. ;_: BUT ITS ONLY BECAUSE WINAMP DOESN'T RUN ON MY PC!
