    Cheers,

    WMA? Windows Media Audio? Winamp3 Plays them already, well mine does.

    the wma plugin that comes with winamp3/2.91 is crap but Ryo is right, it should be there.
    afair you should get the option to install it when you're installing winamp...

    you need the full version of winamp3/2.91 to get wma support, chances are you're using the standard/lite version.
    (the full version is stull free btw)

    Thanks guys. That explains why I can't play wma files in w3. I just hate using windows media player. Its so gäy.

    Damn right, it has to buffer for at least 3-4 seconds if you skip forward of back in a song. I like my music instant!

    Interestingly, I know for a fact that the older version of winamp I used to use (2.XX, the last before 3) had no such problem with buffering of wma, it was instant in skipping.

    hmmm, i tried it in winamp 2.91 (released after 3) and it had that buffering problem, so i just deleted the plugins:)
    i think i've got 2.81 somewhere on the hd, might install that & nick its wma plugin...
