Version: JetAudio Basic 6.0.6
"From an experienced 3 year user, incredible!"
Pros: I?ve used this for about three years, since JetAudio 4. This player adapts to everything. Haven't found file it doesn't play, ogg, flac, ape, acc, mp3, mp3 pro real. Also allows you to rip a cd or convert to all the formats and at high compression rate and *variable bit rate* for almost all. Real, winamp, vlc player, jukebox, sonique, bs player, foobar or anything else I looked into doesn't support 32 bit sound, those who have pro can agree that the sound is unbelievable. Has customizable quick keys (19 different quick keys), easily navigate both audio and music files. When doing homework, using Word, I don't need to find the player to change song, skip ahead or change volume, just use quick keys, no change of flow or interruption from my work. Dock the playlist to the bottom of the screen, automatically disappears, move mouse over, it appears, choose your album, file and has navigation/volume keys. For video files, move mouse to the bottom, player appears, choose the subtitle, size and style in pull down menus. If available can choose audio stream (dubbing), (like mkv or ogm files). Change filter or codec setting. Right click on the screen, on the bottom see filter settings. Can dramatically hear or see changes (ac3, divx, matrix mixing settings and more). Burn CDs. Play DVDs. This has 32 bit sound, at least 5.1 surround sound! Also BBE. Pro option is definitely worth it. Also has lyric viewer, can see lyrics for your cd or mp3 song if supported. I have two sound cards, internal and external, in the mixer menu, can change soundcards instantly.
Also, almost everyone except Ernie knows WMA ****************** compared to mp3pro, mp3, ogg, flac, acc, mp4, you name it. It is a fact, not an opinion, look at the studies and comparisons, there are tons and every single one says that WMA is awful, unless you like degraded sound or low kbs. Personally I listen to nothing less than 128, but I listen to 192 vbr in either mp3 or ogg (converted or ripped in JetAudio)
Cons: Skin selection limited (Cowon, creator doesn't promote their player as much as winamp, sonique or others, they're korean and not known, so not that many users)
Playlist customization lacking, but this should not be the deciding factor.
