Winamp 5.05 with Enhancer or DFX 7.010 installed. Gotta see Windows Media Player 10, though

I use Winamp 5.05. With my nForce chipset & nForce Soundstorm utility, my sound rocks even on a shitty pair of speakers.
I dunt need any DFX or any sort of crap.

here's a quick easter egg to winamp 5 thou works only with winxp..
do a N U L (esc) L (esc) S O F T while winamp is running...

Not that one, this one eats up th resources :

Make sure you are using the modern skin!
1.start winamp 5
2. stretch the main window big enough so you are able to see the beat visualization (NOT the one that is always there, it will appear in the middle and it is speaker shaped
3. there should be a diamond in the middle, it is about 2 pixels wide
4. hold ctrl-alt-shift and left click (once) on that little diamond
5. llamas should appear and bang their head to the beat

its right ..
winamp constantly uses 25-30% resources and the sound is quite distorted too

There are some features in WMP which are not n Winamp, like viewing lyrics, album art, SRS WOW effects etc. U can also synchronise th lyrics, as in karaoke !

WMP 10 has some neat features, but does not get by Winamp which still wins
