    PC audio Media Players?

    I have been using Music Match Jukebox for a few years now and have no real problems with it except that i cant minimize it to the system tray.

    This is really annoying when your coding, Listening to music, looking at documentation your taskbar gets kind of full and it drives me nutz.

    I tried Winamp 5.1 but hated the Playlist orgainizer and it doesnt randomize tracks very well.

    I was wondering what everyone else here uses?
    Tips:
    • Google is your friend! Search before posting!
    • Name your thread appropriately... "I Need Help" doesn't cut it!
    • Always post your code!!!! We can't read your mind!!! (well, at least most of us!)
    • Allways Include the Name and Line of the Exception (if one is occuring!)
    • If it is relevant state the version of Visual Studio/.Net Framwork you are using (2002/2003/2005)

    Windows Media Player all the way. Top product, completly free, no free cheapo versions, no ads and works beautifully. Also integrates right into my Logitech keyboard.
    I use Microsoft Visual Basic 2005. (Therefore, most code samples I provide will be based around the .NET Framework v2.0, unless otherwise specified)

    I have the same problem with RealOne Player, it has a great Play List organiser, but cant minimize it to system tray. I used to use Music Match Jukebox before but i switched to RealOne long time ago.

    I prefer RealOne to Media Player though Media Player loads faster, but have not tested its Play List orgniser.

    There is a great war coming. Are you sure you are on the right side? Atleast I have chosen a side.

    Microsoft put quite some effort into Media Player 9, it's very good.

    Winamp 2.9x. There is no superior.

    Windows Media Player 9 is a piece of crap, Musicmatch is also a piece of crap, but I can't decide which is worst. It's a tough choice.

    The only good WMP would be 6.x. 7 sucks... but 8 is the worst. I'd use 9 before 8 or 7, but 6 before them all.
