I do not like that when you bookmark a station, it saves the IP address and not the station name. Like I memorize my streaming music stations by IP....the older versions of Winamp bookmarked site with the station name I wonder why they took it out of Winamp3 ?

Most likely a bug they did not catch.

You know.. the new winamp uses more memory then realone player? And you can play shoutcast streams through realone player. :)

Yeah, but Winamp is free and there are no stupid pop-ups asking you to pay for things. :)

there is a free version of realone player, but yes..if you try to access the "paid" features then you get a dialog saying you need to pay for it. :(

on the realplayer note. I'm just using the free download version and found myself at work needing to convert a co-workers cd to mp3's. (he's a musician and had recorded some welsh folk music for me so dont' report me to the RIAA !! :) ) RealOne Player converted the CD quickly and easily w/ no fuss or problems. I know that winamp and wmp can both do this w/ some adjustment, but realOne player did this very intuitively (sp?). This may be the first time I've seen a feature that RealOne Free Version really trumps wmp or winamp.
