Winamp 5.5 and 160G Ipod Classic
1. I found it to be refreshing to be able to scroll through my song lists and playlists without it locking up for 2 minutes every 60 seconds. (Great)
2. After playing the ipod through winamp and then trying itunes again, i discovered that I can now resize the columns. This was bugging the **** out of me before. (Fantastic)
3. Winamp treated all my movie files as songs and wouldn't play them as videos. (Very Annoying)
4. Apon loading itunes again I discovered that winamp had created duplicate songs, videos, audiobooks and tv shows playlists. No biggy, just a mild annoyance. Easily deleted.
5. Winamp doesn't use the grouping or comments tabs in the file info. Annoying if like me you use them in itunes.
I haven't tried to add songs to my ipod via winamp yet as I had nothing new to add but removing them is easy and caused no problems at all. Either did changing file info.
I would recommend using winamp over itunes with the classics. At least until the problems are fixed.
Mikey.
[EDIT]: I must also add that my ipod doesn't seem to be freezing so much now that I went to winamp and back to itunes. In fact, it hasn't locked up at all in 20 minutes of playing and scrolling though 18000 songs a few times, and this is on my crappy computer.
