Hell ya i love winamp and winamp3 is really gonna whip the llama's ass was it's finally going to be complete.

JavaFox · Jul 29, 2002, 08:24 AM

I love how WinMedia needs 20% of the CPU to play a damn Mp3, whereas WinAMP can do it with single-digit utilization

ya and its not bulky as hell and i love the fact that i can use there visualtions as my background

UberLord · Jul 29, 2002, 09:31 AM

Also the fact that WinAMP doesn't have any spyware as such AND it doesn't have any restrictive licensing stuff

Oh yeah - it sounds better too

If you use winamp I definently suggest getting the plugin called enhancer. you can find it here http://www.geocities.com/i_adryan/ This plugin is the best one ever made!!! Just listen to your music when using it and your music sounds about 100X better, clearer, even louder so you dont need to blast the volume to hear muffled sound. Someone use it and tell me what you think of it! If that link doesnt work go to winamp.com and click on plugins then search for "enhancer" and it's the second one down Enhancer 017!!!

I use Winamp and Sonique. The strange thing is that they sound different

.

Sonique has a softer midrange and "deeper" bass than winamp. Its hard to say which sounds "better". Depends on the song. I like Winamp very much because of how small it is

.

The one thing that I like about Sonique is that the developers are constantly updating their mp3 decoder with every new release to get the most accurate decoding and best quality.... I can't even remember the last time the Winamp decoder was updated

...

My favorite thing about Winamp is how there are so many plugins for it and how almost every aspect of the player can be changed to the preference of the listener. Sonique is more restricted

....

Everyone pretty much knows how I feel about WinAMP. I'm sorry but I'll stick with my Caddy!

~~Sourcer_2002~~ · Jul 29, 2002, 12:31 PM

ya that little plugin did make a hell of a lot of sounds differences i really like the presets to. What do you guys thank of Winamp3 you like it better or worse or nither? I like the interface but i dont like the way the visulations change from to the other but they have some badass skins for it though!

~~Sourcer_2002~~ · Jul 29, 2002, 12:39 PM

I also think that Mucic Match jukebox would be tight if it all the plugins and the tight ass visulations that winamp has the best/only thing i like about musicmatch is it's music libary.

Sorry.. I refer to J. River Media Jukebox 8 as the Caddy. Like in Cadillac of players. It does a bit more than play MP3's of course.

Nomad559 Thanks for the link to the cool Flash movie that was pretty well done and cool. :coo: I dont agree totally with it but i like it

The best of the movie is the end LoL im pretty sad they didnt put my favorite of the movie in there though "Oh my god it's full of stars"

~~Sourcer_2002~~ · Jul 29, 2002, 02:45 PM

Yeah that J. River Media Jukebox 8 does look cool and i like the skins.

WinAMP seems to have one of the better decoders. It sounds better than most of the MP3 players out there. And I have to ask this: Has anyone tried using ATi file player to play MP3 files? It seems to do a pretty good job.

DallasStar · Aug 4, 2002, 02:35 AM

The ATI file player sounds like crap with everything. It doesn't make any bass

. It might for you, but every time I've used it, it has sounded like crap and somewhat "tinny". That's why I've just not bothered installing it this time around (fresh install)

I use it for playing video, but never cared for it's audio playback.
