Ode to Winamp

You hit the nail on the head right there. Being a Mac user since 1989, before iTunes became my reluctant MP3 player by default, the best by a long shot was SoundJam MP, which was swallowed by Apple and actually became the monolithic iTunes itself, so the manual handling became much more unwieldy. After upgrading from OS9 to OSX, I tried several other MP3 players such as Audion, but nothing ever rivaled SoundJam MP for performance and ease of use.
