Open your WinAmp bookmarks (in WinAmp, naturally) and save them as
either an M3U or PLS playlist. Then simply load the playlist into Foobar.

Hi okay okay what about if you have book marks from winamp?
Can you take that winamp books folder and put it in foo bar to use
them to place your internet streaming radio stations to play in foo
bar and how do you get at them just so you can play with t?

Hi,
Let me say that I was a heavy user in Winamp and looked at Foobar
ages ago
and wasn't impressed with it. However, I must admit after reading the
recent messages on Foobar, I have taken another look and well, I have
ditched Winamp for good. That's how much I am impressed with
Foobar. In
my opinion the sound quality is so much better. Everything is
configurable
and accessible. The fact you can make up your own status line makes it
worthwhile alone as it is a cinch to script for such things as
reading the
elapsed time and time remaining of tracks with just a press of
hotkeys etc.
Nearly every thing Foobar can do you can create a shortcut key to it and
make them global if you want to. In the foobar version I looked at ages
ago, making your own shortcut keys was not accessible but that has
changed
and is fully accessible. There is so much more to this program than I
have
outlined here. Oh I have to also mentioned that it is dam responsive
which
was something that Winamp wasn't at times. The only thing I wish Foobar
had is a plug-in to provide time marking features. Perhaps that can be
scripted in time or I might find that plug-in in the future.
But yeah, I don't know what gives with Foobar and Window Eyes though.
There
is a problem reading the list of tracks in the play list. NVDA and Jaws
don't have this problem.

Hi with all the discussion around Foobar and Winamp. Here is an
interesting
blog about it.
http://winamp2foobar.blogspot.com/
I'm not trying to continue a pointless argument just sending some
information along.
I am planning to do a podcast later this month about foobar as well.
thanks
