Re: Most Often Used Programs
 

Umm.. Why? :p

Just kidding. I do too. I hate the new Winamp, and the newer versions of WMP, so I use WMP just for movies, and the Winamp for music playing.

I feel your pain.

Re: Most Often Used Programs
 

I was having trouble with WMP not playing cds right and it would stop playing the sound but the bar would still move along so I started using winamp. I only use it to play cds or if I want to play music before I go to bed and still use WMP to wake me up because the volumes are independent of eachother.
