MusicMatch Jukebox or WinAmp?

Which do you use to listen to mp3s, shn, etc..?

I use Music Match for tagging, ripping and WinAmp for listening to shn files.

Winamp with DMX plugin for listening, bar none.

MMJ is great for ripping, but as I see it there is only one option for listening: WinAmp.

Small, fast, customizable and sounds good. MMJ is too bloated and intricate for listening, and even though it rips well, its playback sounds 'bleeccccch.'

I have used Winamp for 7 years, and I don't see any reason to switch to the behemoth that is MMJ. Winamp is compact, sleek, and pleasing in its simplicity. I'll probably use it until MP3 gets replaced by something else.

IMO MMJ is simpler than WinAmp.

Not to get off topic...but did your quote really happen Rollo?

Winamp for listening. MMJ for converting to wav and other functions.

Rogue588, I guess it's just that I never really bothered to go in-depth into MMJ. When I first saw it on a friend's computer, it just looked too large and pointlessly complicated, whereas I could use Winamp blindfolded

And the quote... yeah, it was in one of Ebert's "Answer Man" articles. I tend to agree more with Oliver Stone, but I wouldn't say that Lucas' face at Skywalker Ranch... who knows what he could have done to you?

Winamp here.
Has anyone thought about or is using Winamp3?
If so,how is it?
Anything special about it?
I read what it has and all but how is it really with the added features?
