All I can say is winamp is open on my computer playing my music as I write this. Are there really other players out there that do a better job? Seems like a lot of people use iTunes but I've always found it to be a very slow media player. But maybe things have changed I need to reevaluate the current offerings?
- swdunlop 14y agoI find Quod Libet to be my tool of choice, now. The query language is a bit ridiculous, but Mutagen is great for cleaning up crappy tags from my mp3 purchases. Despite being a PyGTK app, it has been fairly responsive and snappy despite my ridiculous media-hoarding habits. http://code.google.com/p/quodlibet/ http://code.google.com/p/quodlibet/
- ageektrapped 14y agoSame. Winamp is the only player I use. The feature that sets it apart: I set a playlist, and _the playlist stays around_ until I change it, no need to explicitly save anything and it survives restarts. WMP and iTunes always forget what you were playing across sessions, at least the last time I tried them.
- vq 14y agoI use MPD. It's really lightweight, have a simple and straightforward concept of playlists and I can use the standard *nix tools to mutate and create playlists. http://mpd.wikia.com http://mpd.wikia.com
