Nash, think of the player as a signal processor. The .cda file has to be converted and eventually end up as an analog signal......and the software is the signal processor, along with your sound card.

The software and the sound card are going to color that signal.

Did'nt we have a discussion on alternatives to Real and some other media players the other night? I seem to recall a player called UnReal or something that has none of the side effects of RealPlayer.

LMAO. You guys are bi^&hing more than the guys in my Home Theater forum. Keep it up please.

All Winamps are resource hogs. Take your pick, they all suck. It has more to do with your SPEAKERS than the programs.

they both sound pretty decent to me...but then i am not overly gifted in the dumbo department.

I use Musicmatch as well. not the basic, I bought the pro and all future upgrades a long time ago.

Sounds really good to me, but I have high quality speakers. And I never cared for Winamp.

I'm using mediamonkey for the features, but for the plain sound, I use Media player lite (find it on sourceforge). i think it comes in the rawest form possible.

lada, Winamp uses more memory than Media Player. Google the chit, I don't have time to argue with you whilst you continually edit your 3 sentence posts.

What's funny about this whole thing is it's a program, it WON'T color the sound, it isn't a Receiver. The two cannot be compared. This is between the file played to the end result out of the speakers. Bottom line. If some use the EQ, they ARE coloring the sound.

Btw, I used to fly AH with Winamp going at all times. AH ran like chit, switched to Media Player on a recommendation, AH ran smoother. Windows Media Players runs smoother in the background than Winamp on it's best day.

i still use winamp 2.81

have not found a better, cleaner interface (which is most important to me) i hate gaudy bubbly looking windoze media player. i refuse to have anything the with the word "real" on my PC. quicktime sucks, and can't manage playlists at all.

btw this is the skin i use, though i darkened up the fonst, and the backlight in the playlist editor

lol Karaya you better stop talking BS, coz you have no clue.

memory consumtion by winamp and wmplayer on the top

wmplayer after 40 seconds of running on the top

Both of them minimized, playing from the same source

Both played same URL.

Since 5Mb is < that 9 Mb
2M are < that 7 Mb

Are you drunk or what ?

edit: yeah sorry i had to correct aoubt->about & at->in

but for sure it makes me a terrorist and i made those pictures in photoshop

you better do not use google nor computer at all... and if you dont belive me, just google that watermelon

It is also going to matter quite a bit what version you are using. Winamp 2.xx or Winamp 5.xx. Version 5.xx uses a hell of a lot more memory than 2.xx does.

lada · « **Reply #27 on:** January 25, 2005, 03:09:17 PM »

Winamp 5.0.1 lite or something like that.
