I think that fuber does handle winamp plugins, so I would say that there's
really not much of a reason to leave for winamp. the library, at least
under jaws, doesn't work correctly in later versions. if you have a large
musical collection, it can take many many many many megs of ram. mine, with
around 20k plus songs, takes up around 45 megs of ram.

Subject: Re: Why winamp?
Hi Anders,
Regarding Winamp the installation is extremely flexible so you can
install as many or as few features as you want and need so Winamp
doesn't have to take up a lot of space. I like Winamp because I like
experimenting with some of the DSP/Effect plug-ins available for Winamp.
I don't have Hal so I don't know how well the Winamp library works with
Hal. Another reason I like to use Winamp is because of the excellent
Window-Eyes scripts now available for Winamp. However if Foobar 2000
meets all of your needs you might like to keep using it. So you have a
lot of options.
Regards Steve.

Actually i have been using foobar2000 for 4 years now.
However from the beginning it was a really neat and great player.
Though many functions i had in my first version of foobar2000 has been
removed.
For example, you now have to create your own hotkeys for play stop etc.
Now to my question.
Most people seems to use winamp and seems to be very satisfied with it.
But it seems to take up a lot of space though.
Now in the latest version of hal you can use winamp much more flexible
than
before.
The screenreader has got new map files and scripts.
So i am thinking to start using winamp again after 4 years.
There is a streamripper plugin also for winamp.
But why should i use winamp?
More than what i've stated above.
Can the library feature be used?
Such as the shoutcast radio functionality i had in older versions of
winamp.
Regards Steve
