Not for me, I have enough clutter already!

Winamp does everything for me.

i'll take a look tonight. if i can get rid of itunes and realplayer then thats a bonus right there!

downloaded this last night.

when it said "Media" player i though great i can have everything running through this. all organized, it will be great.

but no. all it does, from what i can see is stream online tv?

not much of a media player.

If that is all it does, can't really see the point in it at all

yeah thats what i though. doesn't play any avi's or mp3's. think i'll take one more look then ditch it.

shame it looked really nice too

If you're looking for an alternative media player, take a look at this

to be honest i've never got on with winamp. it used to be a right drain on my system. i've pretty much rebuilt my comp now so i may give it another bash
