i don't find the bloat. I can listen to everything, or very very very easily switch to any of my playlists. or smart playlists!

Winamp was fiddly, the interface was shit (library interface that is). It's good if you want to play your playlist, but when you've got 6 or 7, plus your 'main' list and you switch between them a lot, it's great.

Click 'new playlist'. Click 'Library'. Type 'weezer'. Drag

drop. Type 'Pennywise'. Drag

Drop. Click 'New Playlist'. Play.

i'm actually a foobar user but am trying out this latest winamp update since it's the first one with the new team.

Post by **Grudge** » Fri Sep 02, 2005 9:42 am

I use iTunes on my mac at work. I don't like how it has two applications running all the time hogging RAM on my PC though. Hence, winamp at home.
