Winamp

This application is probably the best known and recognizable media player on the Internet. Winamp Media Player gains its popularity thanks to the flexibility of work, the possibility of installing additional plug-ins, and the wide range of supported music formats. This application can handle such formats as MP3, OGG, AAC, WAV, MOD, XM, S3M, IT, or MIDI. However, if we want it to play other formats too, we just have to download and install new plug-ins. Winamp Media Player may play also video files. Among the formats that can be played are such formats as AVI, ASF, MPEG, or NSV. Moreover, just like in the case of music files, we may want to install some additional plug-ins to add some new formats to this list.
Winamp supports also the files transferred via a streamed signal. It can be said that this application is suggested as a default for many streaming services. Winamp can handle Internet radio stations, as well as movies published on multimedia websites or on the Internet TV. Right after the installation, Winamp offers also a tool for basic operations on audio CDs. With this tool, we can convert the audio files to MP3 or WAV, as well as burn an audio CD with the use of Winamp. The interface is based on modules. Depending on our needs and preferences, we can turn the modules on and off. The standard modules are: the main window, equalizer, and playlist editor. One of the additional modules is visualization, which can be resized according to our preferences (we can stretch it bigger, make it smaller, or turn on the full-screen mode).
The interface can be changed with the use of skins, which are easily available on the Internet. If we only want and know how to do it, we can create our own skin, too. Finally, even the multitude of plug-ins available reflects the popularity of this application.
