Yet
another great update for a truly fantastic program! WinAMP is classed
by many as one of the best media players
on the Internet (I too share that opinion). In this release they
have added 5.1 surround sound, aswell as new encoders
(ACCPlus & WMA). Also they have added a new
playlist generator. And much much more! On the fixes side of
things, you can now rip and listen to CD at the same time. They have also fixed
stuttery playback some users found with WMA files. And again alot more fixes.
