Hey all; lately, I've been using winamp to listen to online radio. I have a cable connection and often have buffer 0 or lots of skipping. Any trouble shooting for me? I'd appreciate it.

Grape: can you share with me what you like about Winamp? I know many people like it but for whatever reason I never adopted it as my audio player. I prefer windows media or real audio. I would really like to know the advantages of winamp. Thanks.

Hmmm, I'm probably not the best person to ask. I like it for the streaming music and radio, because my stations are so easy to access. Both of my speaches are demos, so when I can quickly access something something with no speach, all the better. Otherwise, I'd have to say I use windows media most of the time.

i use winamp a lot because of the simple jaws interface, pus winamp supports a lot more file types than windows media

Vary simple key comands as well as easy to create play lists, ogg file support, easy CD ripping, etc
