Review

Winamp 5.6 player is designed to cover the large area of video and audio media file types available today from the most common ones such as *.mp3, *.wma, *.mp4 and *.avi, or *.mpeg to the ones less usuall like MIDI, *.m3u or *.flv and *.mkv.
The player comes with various types of new skins and visualization styles and is easier to personalize in both menu styles, as well as preferences, playlists, bookmarks, history, etc. It also has a lot of new features, such as controlling the playback in your browser, building playlists using the Automatic Playlist generator, cleaning up your metadata with Auto-Tag feature and wirelessly sync media with the Winamp Android app that will allow you to organize your music and your videos a lot more easier and faster and even listen to the latest tracks available on podcasts and internet radio.
Winamp player is very handy software along with its automatic updates and is guaranteed to make your music and videos a lot more accessible and fun to listen and watch.
  • If loading a very large file, it will have a small loading period.

— Winamp forever!
Pros: Easy to use, intuitive interface, variety of skins
Cons: Sometimes you just need more options, not good for video
Comment: It is a great piece of software. It has been installed on my computer forever. Very simple program, even kids can easily use it. It is addictive. Once you have tried it, you don't want anything else. It takes just a few seconds to load it and your favorite music is on.
