Okay so are you just saying that or have you actually tried and explored
other players.

For example I've just looked up Windows Media Player Keyboard Shortcuts
using my friend Google and discovered over 200 keyboard shortcuts.

I know VLC has hundreds of the damn things and even more if you're
prepared to take a few moments to customise the software.

I'm yet to find what iTunes doesn't do that Winamp does.  The interface
is different and takes a little getting used to I admit.

If you're prepared to spend a small amount of money you can buy one of
the most exciting pieces of audio software for the Windows PC to ever
have been invented on the planet and that's Total Recorder, the player
is incredibly powerful even for the Standard Edition.

And finally, supposing Winamp is a spent force come December 20 then
there's nothing at all stopping anyone from using the software if they
see fit though that may mean that the software won't be able to play any
audio/video formats that come our way in the future.

As I said, much ado about nothing and "Joy To The World" come December
20, so fitting that this event is so close to Christmas Day <smile>.

I don't think you understand; while these players may be accessible, will
they allow one to do _all_ the things that Winamp does?  Wil they, for
example, start listening to a file; then you have to stop in the middle;
will they let you go in and pick up right where you left off?  Windows
Media
Player won't; at least as far as I know it won't!  Can't speak for
some of
the others as I've not tried them!  But this is my concern as I want
to be
able to start listening to a show and be able to stop it; then go to the
point where I stopped listening later on!  If these other players will do
this easily, fine!

So in other words - if Winamp ceases to exist - its much ado about
nothing
given there are alternatives out there.

And by the way the software is called iTunes and not iTunes player.

Maybe that's also why I mentioned the ITunes player, because I don't
know
how accessible it is.  People mention Fubar, but I've never tried it,
so I
don't know how accessible it is compared to Winamp.  Maybe the reason are
hooked on Winamp, is because of the Winamp keystrokes that people find
accessible.

Windows Media is pretty accessible.  However it still won't allow
one to
do
things like going to a specific point in a file, just by typing in a
command
as Winamp does!

I hope you enjoy it.

I also forgot to mention Windows Media Player, there are a few little
things
I don't like about it such as it not having support from FLAC audio for
some
strange reason but the software is very accessible.

Dane, you mentioned about the ITunes media plakyer, but can you access
music content on the web with that as a media player?  I don't use
ITunes
yet, but may soon.
