Publisher's Description

Nikki, actually exist a Firefox alternative, this its call Opera and it much better, but who need a Winamp alternative if Winamp is a totally bloated crap. Aimp and XMPlay kickass to winamp ;)

I'm sticking with Winamp Alternative Alternative ;-)

see what happens when everyone goes anti for no reason... this is the birth of that nonsense..
next..firefox alternative !!
ok..**runs**

flashhh: why don't you just install Winamp 5 with the classic interface then? --> New core, good ole' look.

Winamp 5 has a crappy interface, and the old versions are full with system issues. I personally reinstalled my windows copy because of a Winamp 2 version.

no watchapa, this is totally needless crap.

I can't believe anyone would want an alternative to the best! What's the point? Get the real thing. WINAMP RULES!!!!

Well, the program works as advertised hence the 5 rating, but is it needed? When the alternative is bigger than the original, and the original can be lightened further upon installation, the point of the alternative is......what?

Crap. Who needs and alternative to the alternative? There are plenty of shoutcast players out there. WinAmp does more than just shoutcast radio and tv and mp3 libraries. Oh yeah, it's still free. You don't need pro unless you can't handle using a separate util for burning cd's. Geez.

Question : if I have QT and Real Alt, having Winamp Alt is it usefull ? (I use MPC and foobar)
Thanks.

This product works as advertised, but I'm not sure its necessary. Most of the problems that you could find with Winamp are subjective. The most objective problem is that it's owned by AOL and doesn't employ the original team, and occasionally bundles songs and icons from AOL. But they are opt-out, and don't really weight the product down. Oh and the video suppose could be better (though you can opt-out of that too)
Besides, if you wanted a smaller footprint, just choose your install size, memory size. You can uninstall any plugins you don't like (never to be seen/loaded again). It doesn't steer you in any proprietary direction (hey, anyone who offers a free true mp3 encoder is asking for a lawsuit from Frauenhofer).
On the other hand, the Quicktime and Real alternatives are great (the Real Alternative is used in my organization with 0 complaints so far). Real Enterprise Desktop blue-screened a number of my machines before the switch to Real Alternative, and that makes for one unhappy IT admin. The quicktime alternative works but isn't quite as necessary as Quicktime is a more mature and user-friendly application.

What's not to like about Winamp? Plenty. The inconvenient, cutesy interface in general. The crappy media library. And for old versions like the one recommended below, the security vulnerabilities.
Does that pretty much sum it up enough for you?

Very good codec pack. Highly recommended if Winamp is not a player you regularly use like me.

This is just a mini codecs pack which will only make your computer support Nullsoft Media without messing with Winamp. I think it should be awarded.
Still, winamp sucks for me.

mj132, could you please render shoutcast source in graphedit for me, using winamp? no? you can't? well, then if you have no clue - why rate it?
