Hello Chris: if you were to purchase the paid version of winamp? is it generally slow on every system if you were to rip and burn with it? or, will it depend on whatever system you have?

Hi
You are right on both counts. Winamp is extremely! slow, and with the free version you can't rip to mp3. but even the paid version is slow on my system.

the paid version, you can't rip to mp3.  If I'm wrong, please correct me.
