Just got word from Patrick that a new build of Winamp3 has been released! This seems to be the next public beta although it still says "internal" and a changelog is not supplied. First impressions... Each of your CDROMs is now listed in the playlist and the media info editor has been greatly updated.

I used Winamp 3 for a while, and in terms of speed it was awful.

I'll be staying put with the lovely Winamp 2 for a while...

I've been using Winamp 3 still locks up. When you change something, it disappears. I like it a lot and use it, but it's irritating as hell when it quits in the middle of a song. Winamp 2 works. No problem.

Winamp 3's plain nasty in my opinion
it provides no advantage over Winamp2 and its slow as ever.

agreed (with 3 out of 4). winamp classic (v2.x) is still the way to go if you want total reliabilty, stability and performance.

WinAMP is getting better
