Winamp... now THAT reminds me of the 1990s.
- tatsuke95 14y agoNot for me! Still using it daily. People laugh every time they see it. But it does what I want, it's lightweight, and has some great commercial plugins.
- mtgx 14y agoWhat are they using? Besides iTunes.
- tatsuke95 14y agoiTunes and WMP, mostly. To be honest, I don't know what else people are using. It's one of the places I've had to do the least research in software. WinAMP has been a stalwart for over a decade.
- For_Iconoclasm 14y agoMost people that I know use foobar2000.
- mariusmg 14y agoYeap, foobar2000 is basically the "standard" now.
- cdcarter 14y agoAnd a surprising number of people now use Spotify or Pandora for their primary music interface.
- yuushi 14y agoI still use it as well. I didn't realise it was something people laughed at - WMP takes up too much screen estate, iTunes has far too much bloat, and I don't need a music player with the complexity and learning curve of emacs.
- nathan_long 14y ago"iTunes has far too much bloat" - this is exactly why I stil have WinAmp installed. I use iTunes for organizing my music, downloading podcasts, syncing with my iPod, etc. But I also record my own MP3s - songs, voice memos, etc - and opening them in iTunes is annoying. It's slow, and it immediately adds them to my library, which I don't want. If I double-click an MP3, it opens immediately in WinAmp. For most anything else, I use iTunes.
- darkstalker 14y agoI've always liked the winamp interface. I'm using audacious with a winamp skin right now
