Hello! FOobar2000 is a really great player. Though it has its drawbacks. For example you can not add bookmarks (i mean bookmark a radio station). Maybe you can but i have never had any luck with that. The earlier versions of foobar had a reclrding feature which now has been taken away for somereason. Some winamp dsps does not work for me in foobar. Because it requeres winamp to be installed. That sucks really. I haven't listened to winamp for a couple of years no so i can't say anything about it. Though foobar has a good sound qulity and you can also disable the eq if you want to. One bad thing is that it has no mailinglists. You have to be a member of the hydrogenaudio.org and this site si really a pain in the part of you buddy on which you sit. /Anders.

Hello, I love the sound that I get from Foobar2000 over that from Winamp. Just sounds so much clearer and punchy. Dana S. Leslie wrote: "I think they definitely do differ; an I, for one, prefer the sound quality I get from Winamp, to either WMP or Realplayer. If you don't want it, you can disable Winamp's equalizer, as well as the features that send it web browsing. Not liking its interface, I've never used QuickTime for anything other than playing streams that will only play in QT. But what about it is supposed to be superior for audiophile listening? I've never found Winamp deficient in that regard. Blessed Be, Namaste, Dana that's Dana, D A N A, NOT Donna, D O N N A If your synthesizer pronounces them identically, instruct your customized pronunciation dictionary that Dana=dayna. D. S.
