How do you play your music? Specifically, what player do you use today? iTunes? WinAmp? MusicMatch? Something else?
This is sort of an informal poll and will help us with future podcasts and a coming update to the podcast page, so please feel free to answer even if your particular player has been said already.
Me, I use both Winamp and iTunes. If I'm in a folder and double-click an MP3 it opens Winamp. If I'm looking for a song/grabbing latest podcasts, I use iTunes.
A one word answer will suffice. Come on, it's fast and easy! Thanks.

As a few other people have said, Winamp is my default for opening MP3 files, but I use iTunes more often. Windows Media Player is what I use to play CD's while on the computer, though.
It bugs me how every music player asks if you want to make it the default. Why? It's not like they make any more money if you use them more often.

Windows Media Player is Ok, but I like Win Amp best- I've even got an Elvis Costello skin for it, the cover of Get Happy. |

Thanks for the responses, everyone. I'm really shocked how many people use iTunes. I think I might look into doing an Apple enhanced podcast after all, just that I need access to a Mac. I've found a way to put chapters, images, and links in an MP3 but can't find any player that supports it. Some of these players I've not heard of though, so I'm gonna check them out.
Cheers (and feel free to keep them coming)!

do you know about ourTunes? lets you download the songs to your hard drive rather than just stream them.

I use a CD player and a record player and a tape cassette player BUT
when on a computer I used to always use Winamp but since early 2005 I have been a complete iTunes convert, though I kind of resent this. As PixieSteve said, it's handy for sharing music over networks. I too went crazy at uni when in halls over the network. It's now handy within my house because we have a wireless network, with which we can all listen to each others' music. Disgusting.
iTunes

I use i-tunes, but i wish i used Winamp. Winamp rules. Cursed apple and their blood-sucking hold on everything good and making you use crappy software to get at it. Sorry, just fancied a rant...

Ive recently installed the fantastic Media Monkey.
The library and all of its features are truly brillian, exactly what I need for the stupidly extensive amount of music on my pc.
Before this I used windows media, brief stint with winamp, and for the past 4 months ive used audio central - a roxio thing. Audio central is good, if you tag all your names properly, wich isnt the case for me!

Thanks for the responses so far, keep 'em coming. Not as many using Winamp as I thought. And yeah, 2.x (well, 5.x with the 2.x functions/fast load) is where it's at BLT.

Creative Media Source, the one that comes with a Creative MP3 player. Dunno if it's downloadable for other types. Suits me well enough.
