    I use winamp5 for playing mp3's and internet radio
    never really liked media player altough i do use it to watch video's, not dvd's
    had musicmatch jukebox because it will rip cd's to mp3's but thats gone from the pc because i got a program to do just that 1 specific thing

    For music Winamp can't be beaten for video Media Player Classic is fantastic, nice and light.

    I'm pretty much with Moridin on this one, except I use Winamp3. Seems to have superior sound quality on my computer for some reason.

    Perhaps they were just targeting the power-user market? I have enough to make it work, so I'm happy! :p
