Need new music playing software

[momditty]

We've always used MusicMatch Jukebox to listen to the music on our computer (now pushing 130GBS worth, both old and new). Yahoo says we need to switch to them since they apparently bought out Musicmatch. Is there any other program we can use to just listen to our music? We're not looking for a program to download from like I Tunes or Rhapsody. Just something that can open big folders and play the music. It was suggested to us that we should get something that a DJ would use because our smallest folder is about 15 GBS. Can anyone suggest something? Thanks.

winamp is great

http://www.foobar2000.org/

That one used to be my personal favorite

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/default.mspx

Windows media player is much better than it used to be and I highly reccomend it.

This last one, musikcube I haven't tested much but it's probably right up your alley. Give it a shot.


Have fun :)

I loved winamp back in the day (version 2.666 was perfect 'n 2.80 was the last decent one) but Foobar rips winamp a new asshole based on speed memory footprint and overall sorting

grab foobar and this plugin http://yuo.be/columns.php

it's 100x better than I-tunes musicmatch or any other bloated media jukeboxes and the footprint with well over 140 gigs of audio in 348 playlists is between 5 and 7 1/2 megs at all times

the actual decoding is better with many advanced options that make some of the newer high end soundcards worth buying

granted it looks like something outta windows 95 most old school fucks like myself love that basic no nonsense look instead of the bogged down bmp packed shit winamp/ect force you to deal with

on top of this you can easily import winamp avs/dsp plugins with baconwrap (avs plugins) and winamp dsp plugin

also if you partake of anything that changes or enhances your sensory inputs DO download the 'soundtouch' plugin for Foobar as it's hours of endless trippy fun

i always used winamp but just switched over to WMP and loving it at the minute.

A big improvement on older versions that i've tried.

[washounce]

it depends on what you want...
-winamp for its simplicity
-itunes for its interface
-media monkey for its features

i hear foobar is good too, but i never tried it before. hope this helps.

Winamp is still the greatest and you can get all the codecs that you need at their forum.

WMP is also quite good but it doesn't play a lot of formats. If you want to play everything there including FLAC and APE then install XP Codec Pack 2.0.7.2. It is free

[tommygo]

i like vlc media it plays everything

Songbird rocks!
