It is a huge improvement over the past versions. Not only they made a new face lift but the sound is kinda different , the bass when adjusted no longer sounds distorted. It looks pretty cool. Bad thing is weak systems (like mine) would put it a little bit sluggish...
 
No, I don't care how good it is, if it has the words "Real" and "Player" in the program name, I'm not using it.
 
Damn, something we can agree on Klos...

/me stomps on realplayer
 
Real One is really bloated.
 
Whats the difference between realplayer and real one player?
I used to use real player for about a week before i discovered Winamp version 2.xx

Winamp 2.80! well its better than Winamp3 :yuck:
 
You have to pay to use Real One. First for the player itself and then any content you want to see with it. It also looks like a pasty white Windows Media Player skin with useless garbage that hogs up half of the player's window.

I agree with you on Winamp3. It still crashes when I use a 3rd party skin, I can't use my version 2 AVS's or plugins, huge memory footprint (bigger than IE6), and it crashes randomly. It makes you wonder what Nullsoft has been doing for the past year. Playing with llamas, I guess...

Winamp 2.81 is the latest "classic version" now. I use Winamp 3.0 btw.
 
My home comp is only a P2 266mhz (infact its a P2 350mhz but the motherboard thinks differently) so I have to make sure that I minimise on stuff running in the background. Winamp 2.80 processor usage only playing mp3 is about 7% then winamp3 is about 70%, mind you it helps that I have 512mb ram or my comp would be pretty much useless with win2k anyway.

Oh yeah it said you can install the old 2.xx plugins, but I had no idea where you put them.

Oh I see, after I downloaded winamp3 I havent visited winamp.com I wonder why?

Well at least they have some sense by continuing to update winamp 2.xx
 
Realjukebox was better, RealOne Player takes up more ram, thus making it more sluggish on my 3 years old computer.
