In consequence, I started to search for other music players, preferably one that would be close to Winamp's capabilities.
Unfortunately, the Winamp for Mac project was abandoned around 2001; there is a player from that time but only works under Mac OS 9. So, that's a dead end.
Other players (FREE of course) that you might look at:
- Audion- http://www.panic.com/audion/download.html. A rather OK player...a bit hard to get around it but decent. Plus:1. it resembles Winamp's interface quite a bit (see the screenshot attached); 2. like Winamp it doesn't need to copy the music files into its library..which is great.
- Media Player 9 for Mac - only if you're a real fan, which I am not...so I haven't check it out. "Sporting a new brushed steel skin for Apple's newest operating system, this new version of our player opens the world of Windows Media 9 content to Macintosh users, enabling them to access the best audio and video on the web." I like the fact that this one is small (only 7 MB). Link: http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads.mspx?pid=Mactopia_WMP&fid=1E974157-5031-4AC6-840A-6E07547B6AEB#viewer
- Vox 0.2.6 directly from Apple. Available at: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/audio/vox.html
