It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.

I've been using iTunes for the last couple months now. Yes it's big and bloated, but I like the playlist management.

Does anyone use it to create MP3s? I've always just used audiograbber+LAME.

I'm using 5.24, takes about 5mb of ram in task manager, and 0 cpu cycles... 5.x ftw.

Also, you can't beat having 1000's of radio stations built right in, with easy reach (and 100s of video stations) all for free, which is what I use winamp mostly these days... any other player come close with the number of free media stations? :p

The only thing I hate about winamp is that it SUCKS at shuffling.
