Is it weird that i use KMplayer for all HD content and WMP (windows 7) for audio??? (I dont have much flac to listen to!)

[faster3200]

I starting using Foobar when I switched over to Win7 a while ago since VLC had issues. Wow, I really like it. Fantastic for FLAC and it works with my G15

Foobar for music and WMP and VLC for video is really all I need.

There's another one I've only been playing with for about a month its called Songbird. MaxPC loves it so I thought why not give it a try, I installed it, tried it for a few days and almost forgot about it. Then around the middle of Nov, I tried it again. Been using it about 60% of the time now.

We're working on creating a non-proprietary, cross platform, extensible tool that will help enable new ways to playback, manage, and discover music. There are lots of ways to contribute your time to the project. We'd love your help!

The player is really no big deal but the way other apps interact with it is pretty sweet. I was already using LastFM.com, EAC (edit: Exact Audio Copy) and others. I could have posted it earlier but I hadn't tested it long enough. I have to give newer apps at least a 5 week test run. I have it installed only on Win Vista Ult 64bit. Will give it a shot in Windows 7 Ult 64bit later this week.

Please also note that there are free skins and apps for Windows Media Player. http://customize.org/wmp/skins/34897

Lately WinAMP has been buggy for me and holes for tracking and virus'. I was a long time WinAMP user and I still have Hundred's of tested Skins before I gave up.

MPC and Windows Media Player. I'm probably the only person on earth who likes its library

Looks pretty neat, I'll give it a try on my laptop. I'm stuck with iTunes on my main rig because of my iPhone though.

I've looked at a couple of iTunes substitutes as well. I have iTunes installed and use it only for my iPhone and nothing much else. Songbird should be able to manage most of the music files, not sure about movies though.

Here's something for you to check out. I'll check this one out later this week myself.
