looking for good mp3 "jukebox"
 

Looking for tips on good freeware/shareware or low cost jukebox software that doesn't abuse system resources. Stupid RealJukebox is a resource hog. Thanks :-)

WinAmp !

Yep Winamp!
 

Use the new Winamp3 beta version for cross fading, great for parties!

Thank you! Yes! WinAmp is a zillion times better than RealJukebox. I think those folks at Real are taking programming lessons from Microsoft or something.

BTW...is there something similar for the Mac? I'm getting a friend setup who's on the Mac platform.

Thanks :-)

Winamp also runs on Mac yet, Linux soon. :)

Audion is also very good (www.panic.com) for Mac's. It's shareware after a trial period, but actually worth the cost. One of the few shareware programs I have coughed up the dough for. I haven't checked out the new Mac version of WinAmp yet, but it's definitely better than any other Mac mp3 player I've seen (MACAST, GreyAmp, RealJukebox, etc).

Go with music match. The free version is great, and the pay version is even better
