    Foobar2000.
    Before that, I used Winamp. What converted me back then was that Winamp was running sluggishly on - now sold (a long time ago) - XP laptop (Pentium M 1.7GHz, 1GB RAM). When I installed foobar, it ran smoothly and helped other applications running more smoothly. Since then, I've stuck with it and I love as much as I did the first time I used it. Many people use it because it's extremely customizable but for me, that's just secondary. It's extremely versatile what format it can play and if it doesn't play off the hand, there will be a plugin somewhere to be able to do so (exemple: .ape (lossless format)).

  2. Winamp here. Used WMP for a loooooong time but when I started using flac went to Winamp and never looked back. Like VLC too but only use it for video and movies now.

  3. Hi.
    Seems mine isn't on the list.
    Using JetAudio for years. But what matters is the audio processing. I found a free app from viper's audio named Viper4windows which has rich audio tweaking for movies, audio, and freestyle setting.

    I usually use Google Play Music in the browser, but when I do local only, I love the Zune software. It's just gorgeous.

  7. I would prefer anything over WMP. that said, I've been happy with MediaMonkey. I bought the Gold version (lifetime license) to get better rips and to get an easy to use sleep timer.

    I use either VLC or Clementine.
    When I was using Linux NetRunner I found out about Clementine and I love it.

    But then again. I'm not that picky about my media player. Just as long as it works
    I'm fine with it.

  12. I use Winamp to play directories (folders) full of FLAC or MP3 files. They can be 10's of GB in size and Winamp does it's job. I have the pro version and have used it since 2000. I also used MusicMatch before stupid yahoo bought it and closed it down. I have a CD of Music Match and have it running on a XP VM. I wonder if it would work on 7, 8 or 10?

    I'm a media monkey guy. Although I do run iTunes as I can AirPlay right to my Marantz receiver at home...that's very nice.
