Nullsoft Winamp is a fast, flexible, high-fidelity media player for Windows. Winamp supports playback of many audio (MP3, OGG, AAC, WAV, MOD, XM, S3M, IT, MIDI, etc.) and video types (AVI, ASF, MPEG, NSV), custom appearances called skins (supporting both classic Winamp 1.x/2.x skins and Winamp 3 freeform skins), audio visualization and audio effect plug-ins (including two industry dominating visualization plug-ins), an advanced media library, Internet radio and TV support, CD ripping, and CD burning.

The Standard installer includes input, dsp, and vis plugins, but no media library.

    All these whiners are spamming the review section, I've been using Winamp since 1997 and have no issues with it till now, FLAC works, everything works fine if your OS is stable.

    Only thing I'd like to see is an option to resample to 48,000 KHz or 96,000 KHz and any codec playback support like VLC, right now I use Winamp with FFDShow to attain obscure format playback.

    It does what it says on the box!

    Totally bloated crap. Aimp and XMplay are much better that this useless, Rotten! piece of garbage.

    Good but Unicode support is buggy. Using the Winamp Classic, skin will enable it but using the Winamp Modern, will result in "boxes".

    Im happy that standard edition is beeing released again now. I still think its too bloated. These days im toying with the idea to switch either to QMP or Foobar.

    Almost 7mb for a player is too much. Version 5.2 was 4.2mb...

    states flac works. I still cannot get a flac file to play at all. I got one to play once but cannot get it to happen again. the library needs to be mor eaccessible and eaier to use. that has got to be one of the most confusing parts of the software.
    Thanks.
