# WinAMP v. iTunes

I have 6.63GB of music on random in

[WinAMP](http://www.winamp.com/)

right now. I love the mix!
A comment: Now that that the iPod Shuffle is has been sold to its new home, I am very glad to be rid of iTunes. I didn't realize how bad it was until I re-installed WinAMP last night.
Wow. WinAMP has all the features I want. iTunes was non-intuitive and a processor/memory pig. iTunes doesn't play OGG files, so I had to convert a lot of OGG files to MP3.
And if anyone wants to give me a present, and can't afford a 15" or 17" Powerbook,
