    Just curious as I love my music and am always looking for better players

    On my Linux computers I use Amarok http://amarok.kde.org/

    And on my windows computers I use Quintessential player http://www.quinnware.com/

    Most of my music is in ogg format http://www.vorbis.com/ not mp3 or wma, as all my CD’s have been ripped on Linux.

    I use an iriver mp3 player as it supports the ogg format

    Download most of my music from http://sharez.cn/ (to decide if the CD’s are worth buying) its mainly complete albums on this site.

    For me, I have an iriver MP3 player also which is used in the car, on the bike (via the Autocom) and in the gym. I used to have most of my music in Ogg Vorbis as well, but with the onset of the Xbox 360 I wasn't able to stream .ogg files to it and therefore had to convert all of my collection to MP3.

    On the home PC I use WMP11 as it's fine for what I need it for, and with the integration between it and the 360 I've no reason to look elsewhere. I used to use WinAmp but I don't really tend to use this now because of the WMP11/360 integration. It's great being able to play a game on the Xbox and have your own music playing through the surround sound system at the same time (I know, albeit in stereo, but it's better than listening to the in game music! )! ;D

    As i've got an Ipod i've got itunes installed but only use it for updating Ipod and when i want to use the party shuffle option, obviously Windows Media Player is installed but I hate it, So is Winamp i like it but find the play lists fiddly
    and I use Realone to listen to Radio 2 etc. i've got a MP3 rip software and that can rip to a few different formats including OGG but i don't know enough about it to use it

    i use iTunes on PC and mac and iPod when im on the move. I personally dont think that any of the other software i have used can handle songs and albums as well as iTunes can.
