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.

foobar2000 mainly.
iTunes for podcasts and occasional playing. (although I think I can use itunes to download the podcast and foobar to play it.)
Waiting for the next release Quintessential player to try that, there's still a few glitches that are annoying in the betas.
That which does not kill me postpones the inevitable.

MusicMatch. I've used it for so long. I'm just comfortable with it.
I've got iTunes installed, but I use it only to listen to the 30 second clips of songs from bands I might be interested in. I know I could use the MM version but I like iTunes searches better.

Maybe it's Itunes, I got a Mac. I don't know, mainly I just click on the bastard and hope it works.

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

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.

kind of like you. winamp is my default player if i double click. however i listen to most stuff on itunes, the library is much better in my opinion. plus it has a network feature which is good for sharing music over uni network :) (despite a ban on p2p i swear i have download more music in the past 6 weeks here than i ever did at home during any 6 week period)

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!

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...

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.
