"Is it really light?"
Version: Winamp Lite 5.621
Pros
Simple and easy.
Cons
Too slow and sometimes it freeze.
Summary
I do not know why it is light. It "eats" too many resources of the PC and sometimes when playing the music stops. I changed to the normal Winamp v.5.621.
In the same PC, Songbird and iTunes work without problem. -

"Be weary of bundled components and all shall be well"
Version: Winamp Lite 5.58
Pros
As you don't select the crud the installer suggests, it's a solid app just as it was in the past.
It works on all modern Windows systems.
It has useful plugins (Shoutcast and EDCast DSP)
The UI has been consistent for years but have skinning as well.Cons
Its associated with AOL and presents crud as default options.
It doesn't do a good job telling you about what's contained in Pro. (Format export)
It is arguably a bloated piece of software because of what it bundles (These things are purely optional)Summary
So long as you pay attention during install, it is a good player which is lighter than iTunes. The streaming video feature is nice as is the format support that many other players lack.
Winamp lets you chose the audio device (Through DSP/Output) to playback media.
It supports obscure formats including open-source ones. -
