2004/2/5 [Computer/SW/Apps/Media] UID:12115 Activity:nil | 2/5 How do you organize your MP3s?
\_ musicbrainz is a good idea in theory. I think there's a Windows client.
\_ /mp3/[A-Z]/Artist/Album/Artist - 01 - This Song.mp3
\_ what program do you use? (jukebox)
\_ Winamp 2.91. Played with iTunes, it's no good unless you have
complete ID3 tags on almost everything, and I don't. I played

2004/1/15-16 [Computer/SW/Apps/Media, Consumer/Audio] UID:11799 Activity:nil | 1/14 Has anybody else tried iTunes (the player) simply as a winamp
substitute? I'm nearly weeping at how *nice* it is. Would someone
kindly point me toward the kool-aid?
\_ does it play mp3s, or does it need to convert to their format?
\_ it plays mp3s.
\_ what does it do that is so improved over winamp?

2003/12/22 [Computer/SW/Apps/Media, Computer/HW/CPU] UID:11557 Activity:nil | 12/21 Whoever said Winamp 5 is not a resource hog should go to hell.
I have a Pentium 3/600 MHZ labtop. That thing eats up most of the
CPU cycle. For those who want something light, go for Winamp 5 lite.
Then again, I don't see any reason for upgrade to winamp 5 light from
winamp 2.9x, since most of the cool features are in the "full" version
\_ i run winamp 5 on a celeron 500, and it doesn't use more than 5%

2003/12/17-18 [Computer/SW/Apps/Media] UID:11503 Activity:nil | 12/17 I'm a die-hard Winamp 2.x user from way back. Has anyone used Winamp 5
and if so, how does its speed and UI compare vs Winamp 2.x ?
\_ you can make the UI pretty much the same as 2.x by using the classic
skin. i dunno, it might be slower a bit, but not by much, and more
features usually do that to a piece of software anyway. otoh, i like
that it has builtin ogg support finally, so i'm sticking with it.

2003/11/4-5 [Computer/SW/Apps/Media] UID:10922 Activity:low | 11/3 iTunes for the PC has this nifty feature that fades out the tail end
of one track into the beginning of the next. Call me easily
impressed, but I like this a lot. Are there plugins for Winamp
that give the same effect? --erikred
\_ you can turn on 'cross fading' in winamp - danh
\_ I thought it was nifty until the first time I listened to an album

2003/10/18-20 [Computer/SW/Apps/Media] UID:10688 Activity:nil | 10/18 Is there a player that is not a Real product that will play
.ram and .ra format on Windows?
\_ There's a winamp plug in that lets you play Real Audio files.
Google for 'Tara Winamp Plugin' and try to ignore the Tara Reid
porn.

2003/10/11 [Computer/SW/Apps/Media] UID:10591 Activity:kinda low | 10/10 This is stupid, but is there any way to get Win2k to use the "old
style" CD player application? I _HATE_ this new skinned version,
always trying to download my song info and just ugly and clunky.
\_ Only way I know of is to reinstall. Better yet, just use WinAmp 2.91
(and not that bloated WinAmp 3.x crap). I've always liked WinAmp
better than any version of WMP.
