Lets hope it is better than winamp 3

wow. only been trying it for like 30 mins, but i really like it already. alot faster than winamp3 (which sucked ass because it ate up all the memory). windowshademode player+playlist combo works much better now too because you can do all the stuff you normally could. sweet.

I agree

tried it out when they released it.. it had no [j] function... god that sucked, scrapped it and returned to m 2.x with transparency plugin

Used Sonique since forever. Does the job for me.

2.x for me still, although I'll give 5 a try when I get home.

If it has low memory usage and prettiful skins, then consider me converted.

no skins for it yet i dont think

 

[old.tRoG]

The potential for prettiful skins, then. Like Winamp 3. But with the general uberness of Winamp 2.
