"Best media player on the market!"
Version: Winamp 5.63
Pros
Easily customizable, plays plenty of file types including FLAC. It has 24-bit support for my sound card(HT|Omega Striker 7.1). Winamp includes a built in equalizer, visualizer, ability to install skins and addons. It's best feature is speed, the searches are extremely fast and easily refreshes my library of 85,000 songs. No other media play has handled all of my songs anywhere near as well as Winamp has - they slow my computer to a crawl when adding the songs and searching is a pain. It is also the ONLY media player than can play PROTECTED iTunes media files - this requires downloading a dll file. It starts up fairly quickly compared to iTunes, Spotify, and Windows Media Player but is not as fast as VLC. It also has a built in internet browser and its own version of the Last.FM scrobbler and can download podcasts. The options for Winamp are endless, making Winamp the best choice for a media player.
Cons
Does not support as many codecs as VLC, sometimes freezes when playing large files such as blue ray's or mkv files. The organization of the program after your first install can be confusing but can easily be fixed by dragging the bars around and adding columns. After a complete scan of files, Winamp does not refresh the updated song database unless you scan for deleted songs or restart the program. It would be nice if it automatically downloaded album art but I am sure there is an addon for that.
Summary
Give this program a try! It is definitely worth paying for the Pro version - support the developer! There are a ton of addons for the program, making it support more file types than from its original install.
Here are the links for the dll files - I would just download both and you need to have iTunes and Quicktime installed http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?threadid=157475

"A excellent AV player for windows."
Version: Winamp 5.63
Pros
Very comprehensive GUI and help functions. Good fidelity. Very stable. Extensive set of plugins & options available.
Cons
A little awkward to use at first. Requires son patience, to get it to work the way you want it.
Summary
Both the freeware & shareware versions are available. Give Winamp a shot, you may really like it.

"Winamp 5.63 - Excellent Media Player."
Version: Winamp 5.63
Pros
Much better than Windows Media Player with more user interface. Easier to move things around and no problems playing MP3 music, even downloads, as I was having with Windows. Hadn't tried Winamp before it was recommended to me and I'm glad it was. I have now recommended it to others.
Cons
Slightly confusing at first, especially with the separate components but doesn't take long to get the hang of it.
Summary
Overall an excellent device with many options and very easy to import your music etc from Windows Media Player or the web. Good fun learning how to use it. Highly recommended.

"Appalling and wouldn't uninstall"
Version: Winamp 5.63
Pros
It has any?
Cons
Partly my fault, I wanted a media player and it does say "play and organise". I'm quite capable of organising my stuff on my own thanks.
Also it didn't have the codecs I wanted and which I specified when I was looking for a player, more CNET's fault I suppose.
Then, after a frustrating fight with it because it wants to do things it's way (If I wanted an Apple I'd buy one) it wouldn't uninstall. I had to manually delete files, use task manager to stop running files and then use a registry cleaner to remove the hundreds of entries it left behind, many of which I did NOT want installed in the first place, including Firewall exceptions when I had specified NO online services on install.Summary
Definitely not for me.

Version: Winamp 5.63
Pros
Did everything I needed in a media player

"old friend fading a bit."
Version: Winamp 5.24
Pros
for the most part pretty much the same good old winamp it's always been.
Cons
for some reason it longer plays .avi files, and i was the type that used winamp to play .avi (among other video files) for audio-only, to run in the background when using other full screen progs... of course if i want to watch the stuff i just use vlc.
p.s. why is it saying "..review for Winamp 5.24"? this was supposed to be for 5.63.. -
