What's your music player of choice?

Hirudin:
Can anyone suggest a good portable music organizer? (I'm a big fan of MediaMonkey, but it's not portable)

I put my whole library onto an external harddrive so that it can travel with me. And the MM installation on my own system has it all indexed in its database. But when I'm at another machine, I'd like to be able to search and browse the library quickly.

Media Center has a "Portable Install" option during the installation process, but it's never worked for me. It always says "You can only do a portable install if you have a license on this machine" which always leaves me wondering "exactly how can I get a license on this machine if I cannot install your software?" ...I guess they want us to install it twice?

That's what they usually want. Install once on machine with license. Then do portable install which will take/check the license from the installed version. Seems to be an approach to security, though some software is able to take the license on a single portable version.

Winamp Rules  ;D  :D
WMP and other players are god, but i'm using winamp and i don't need more than what it offers me currently  :P

Music_Guy:
Winamp all the way! I might be bias since I started using it years ago and listened to all my favorite music when I was younger. Never made a switch since, though Windows Media Player is also alright.

Curt:
... and Windows Media Player 11 are the most userfriendly players you can have, but as long as WMP won't handle the flashes...-Curt (August 06, 2007, 01:57 AM)

And all this time I could just have installed FLV Splitter & FFDShow, and Windows Media Player would have played my flash videos without any problems. Who knew. I didn't:

Hi Curt

It's already possible to add FLV support to WMP now, by installing the following two packages:

FLV Splitter: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Flash_Video_Splitter.htm
FFDShow: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/FFDshow.htm

Kind regards

I now have it installed and WMP is playing my flash files just fine. Though, for the time being I am mostly using The KMPlayer, http://www.kmplayer.com/forums/ , and I have just downloaded the brand new AIMP 3 BETA and am excited to test it; I was really pleased with version 2 :-)
