logophobia 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2004 Windows media player sux. It's slow, bloated and has an irritating interface. It's visualizing sux *bottom* compared to winamp. Winamp is much much better. I use it for everything since a year or 2. It's much faster (its click&play instead of click&wait4secs&play) and has some nice plugins and skins.

nicky1 0 Report post Posted November 10, 2004 I personally like that new wmp10 in skin and feature. I think it is more pretty than v.9 . But my comp is so slow when I running it.By the way I alway use winamp 5 to listen to the most music. and got powerdvd for playing the movie it is better.

invalid 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2004 Yes, the latest version sucks alot. I waited for it to upgrade and when I tested it with my videos, the display was all grainy and bad. Audio playback is great and the skinning is improved but I clicked that rollback as soon as I found out its bad.I use Winamp on mp3s and WMP on videos.

jjhou 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2004 Windows Media PLayer 10 was a large improvement from Windows Media 9, better layout, better skinning options and more tools to play with.I wouldnt trust its Ripping Tool as its very basic and probably wouldnt do the advanced ripping that a normal Audio CD would require.
