I tried Ultraplayer and also Destiny Media Player
which is good for some net radio stations.

Winamp 5 promises video and seems to have
overcome the V3 dogginess to really whip that
other animal's arse.

Its also compatible with the SDK commands that
controlled Winamp 2.xx from third party applications
like one I wrote.

It really depends what you want to do with it, as
writing a small MP3 player is trivial now the
MS dll's support .mp3


Does Microsoft's DLL provide properly good quality reproduction?

It sounds OK to me.

mp3 is a compromise really, I haven't carried out any detailed
listening tests to compare ATRAC and various mp3 encoders
and decoders, but they all beat the crap out of older tape
devices and the snap crackle and pop of vinyl.

see: http://www.minidisc.org/keep/atracmp3.pdf

I've been doing some comparisons between the Early
Music Show on BBC R3 off digital satellite and the
Real media streamed off their website at 50kbs its
surprisingly good, but you can hear artifacts.

We've come a long way since the wind-up gramophone.

I find that Quintessential (sic) has a fiddly interface with some
buttons only a few pixels wide.

That reminds me of a sneaky trick to wind somebody up - change the
position of the Hot Spot on their default cursor. :-)

Neat trick. So how do you change the position of the Hot Spot on
the cursor?

Edit the cursor file with something like Microangelo.
