HOW TO

Winamp 2.74
Microsoft's Windows Media Player 7 may receive the plaudits as the most improved media player around, but if you're concerned mainly with playing and managing MP3 files, check out Nullsoft's Winamp, a relative old-timer.

Like Netscape, Nullsoft's parent company is America Online, but Winamp's developers have still managed to create one of the most powerful, compact, configurable, and cool players around. The most recent version, 2.72, weighs in at a mere 2.2MB. A lite version, which forgoes the music-driven graphics module and support for the WMA and M-Juice audio formats, is a slim 481KB. Both let you choose from among thousands of interface "skins," and both offer over 100 plug-ins for audio effects and music visualization. To try a new skin, just click its download link in the Winamp site, and boom! It's installed and running.
