I use an old version of iTunes on Windows and haven't found anything better, for the following reasons:
1. It has a taskbar player, which is a tiny strip of media controls which sits in your taskbar. AFAIK the only other player to offer this is Windows Media Player.
2. It has the best-looking (for me) GUI with the column browser etc.
3. You can use parental controls to disable all the crap like the store/videos/radio/etc. to make a very minimalist player.
The only problem I have with it is that older versions don't sync correctly with modern devices (iPod, iPhone, etc.) but there are workarounds for this using a virtual machine: https://www.tersetechtips.com/how-to-keep-using-an-old-version-of-itunes-on-windows-with-a-modern-iphone-ipad-ipod/ https://www.tersetechtips.com/how-to-keep-using-an-old-versi...

In the taskbar meaning where you select applications that can maybe show the window title but by default is just icons these days? Or the in the notification area / system tray? If the later, Winamp has a bundled plugin for that, and I believe Foobar2000 does too.
