Hi Tony.
Winamp is great if you can remember lots of non-windows standard keystrokes,
you don't like Pink Floyd or live albums and you don't mind it being broken
in some minor way each time AOL decide to mess with it.
It was certainly the most accessible 8 or 9 years ago when media player was
quite poor in access terms and Itunes was a figment but, in my opinion,
media player is far more accessible and doesn't need any additional scripts
to make the most of it's rich functionality.
The media library works on a simple tree structure and can be easily
searched. It's far better with gapless music. Just compare an album in
both media player and winamp where there shouldn't be gaps between the
tracks. Media player is faultless whereas winamp stutters between eachtrack
momentarily.
I won't bore you with any other reasons but I think it's wellworth a try for
anyone that's stuck with winamp for years thinking it's the most accessible
and easy to use player when it's actually nowadays amongst the worst.
Regards.
Kevin

Hi Peter,
Was on the ACB radio website earlier and they say that Winamp has quite a
number of keystrokes to it so presumably accessible to us?
What are some of the advantages of Winamp for us over say WMP and Real
player?

You can't beat Winamp.

Hi all,
I would like to know what criteria we should adopt when deciding what
media player to have as our default and favoured player.
Access I'm sure is very important but any other considerations also?
What would be your favoured player then for access and functionality and
why?
Thanks
Tony
