Music player for windows
Clannad_92:
hiya all...
like the title says, im looking for music player for windows...
i already use Winamp and uninstall it because just found out that it can go online through its browser...
already try to block with firewall, and set 'not connected to internet' doesnt give anything...
so, im hoping that there's mp that just play music and not go online/ have feature to go online...

Foobar2000. looks plain, but it works, can convert music and has addons. will not go online for anything ever, unless you have the freedb addon and use it to tag your music. (not recommended really, online tagging regardless of service, i mean)

which windows? if its 7 then i'm using windows sidebar gadgets, to be more precise, the one bundled with X-Fi software called SB jukebox, one issue though is that it seems to not remember it's former settings every time i reboot.
why not use windows media player?

I've always used the minimal, lite install of WinAmp. During install I always disable/deselect all the online garbage and strip it to music player only, no skins, no other media, etc. For other media I have other tools (pix: IrfanView, video: MPC-HC).
I have no issues with my WinAmp installs ... they never go online, they never try, they have no need. They exist to play what is on my hard drives and obey me because I Am t3h kami-sma over them.
I lieks FooBar also. A lot. Takes some adjustment and learning, but haz powerful toolkit. Mostly I use it to populate metadata when ripping FLACs, and great for converting from lossless to *.MP3s when needed.

fb2k for life. One of the few apps I use wine for (although one always prays for a linux-native version someday…)
