I have been using the Winamp 5 beta software since it was
first released and I was having some small problems with the first beta release
(the playlist would, for instance, not show any files when starting the
software for the first time) but beta 2 fixed these small bugs for me. So
far I'm very happy with the software. It looks great and it simply works well on
my computer. If you're not afraid to use beta software then you can download
Winamp 5 beta 2 via
FileForum.
