foobar2000, end of discussion. I used WinAmp for a while and although it's a pretty good music player it does have some user interface features that bug me.

  • foo_audioscrobbler - Scrobbles plays to last.fm
  • foo_quicktag - Gives you a submenu when you right click where you can choose to add values to certain file tags, f.ex Album Type -> Studio Album, Studio EP, Best of Album, etc. You can define yourself what this menu should include and what tags they should write to.
  • foo_quicksearch - Gives a highly customizable searchbar which is my preferred way of finding my music
  • foo_uie_library_tree - Gives you a panel with a library tree which you can customize in various ways and also gives you autoplaylist support (f.ex a playlist which is always updated with all songs above a certain rating)
  • foo_uie_biography - Gives you a panel with artist biography from last.fm, but what I like the most is that it can fetch artist pictures and album art for you automatically (without prompts/dialogues) if those things are missing
Add Soft Playlists to that. It generates Last.fm related playlists and can even generate playlists of similar song based on a selected song like iTunes Genius.
