what music player do you use?

[Uber Philf]

Wow, good luck listening to all that mate

A correctly configured WMP12 is perfect.

Mine loades my 66.6 GB of music as soon as I click to open it.

Loads my album art instantly.

Plays all of my FLAC files (I use .FLAC for best quality)

Winamp is cool but gets old after awhile.

And Mediamonkey is great for editing metadata and tags

Best the best media player is WMP12

#1 i agree, however xion is a lovely little player particularly with a Boxi theme , for playing giant files i wouldnt load into wmp.(too much housework!)

Winamp here. Plays FLAC natively. I heard there's a way to play FLAC in WMP12 but I never found out what it is.

I use WMP 12 and it's a great audio/video player. In terms of the audio aspect, it keeps my album art and song information very orderly. I actually don't have as a large a collection as I thought I did because it's only about 5 GB. Most audio files I have are in WMA Pro format, some WMA Lossless and some WMA standard. I have some MP3s lying around as well but mostly all WMA so it's all easily and natively compatible.

If it wasn't for my iPod I'd use WinAMP more often but iTunes at the min.

I just use WMP.

I tried a few of the more popular media players, but found there really wasn't a reason to use them. I don't listen to enough music on my pc anyway. I got CD's and an mp3 player running through my truck stereo. That's where I listen to most stuff/ Usually on the way to and from work, and on the rare occasion I go on a long drive somewhere. I spend most of my time listening to ESPN Radio anyway.
I haven't used Winamp since about...ummm.....2002 or something like that.
Didn't realize so many people still use it.

WMP: good integration, but very very slow, lacking in features

I'm sorry, but I have to disagree there. I've been using WMP 'properly' for years (since v10 I think) and I have to say that it's always been very quick for me. Almost instant start-up (even cold starts), library navigation is quick and easy, searching is fast and almost limitless with wildcards and filters, etc (though they need some research to find out about...), and it does have some pretty nifty features these days.

And as for calling iTunes "beautiful"...

 

[johnwillyums]

I play albums. I have no use for playlists so I don't use the library in Winamp. I just keep my albums in Music and just "play in Winamp"
I suppose I'm old fashioned but I tend to think a lot of bands I like think about the way the tracks on their album are arranged and thats the way they're meant to be listened to.

Foobar 2000 all the way.
