![]() What good is winamp without some music for it to play and again I turned to freeware. ![]() On the other hand, iTunes does not allow you to play songs based on the folders (location) but you can do that in MPEG Audio Collection. With MPEG Audio Collection, you can catalog all your CDs and search for the songs without needing the original CD. I use both MAC and iTunes as they serve two different purposes. ![]() Apple’s iTunes is also good but it’s very resource intensive, especially if you choose to normalize the volume. It uses Windows default player (winamp here) to play music. It is very lightweight and can read all types of audio files. ![]() For cataloging my music collection, I use MPEG Audio Collection. Nothing beats good ol’ Winamp (classic) here for playing songs. Here is what I have settled on in the end. It was just that I was on a tight budget and I wanted to see whether it was really possible to live without commercial software. I have nothing against Micro$oft or any other ISV making money though. It took some work to evaluate all the applications but in the end, it was worth it. Recently I upgraded my home PC and I thought, well, how about loading it with only freeware/open source software (On top of Windows XP)? So I started looking around and found some excellent freeware, along with a lot of trash.
