    I just thought I'd share this treat with you guys, it's a music player that uses virtually no memory (unlike WMP, Winamp, etc). I believe it's open source and customizable, it's called foobar2k, download it here.

    Enjoy :)

    Not tried it yet, but looks like a good find. Will give it a go tomorrow and report back.

    the stripped version of winamp hardly uses any resources either, it's only a 700kb DL as well. I beleive winamp only use between 0-2% of my cpu though it really isn't that innefficient, I am willing to bet that the song itself is what takes most of that 2% anyway.

    EDIT: I reconsidered and am now using it. I noticed that winamp was using as much as 20mb of my ram so I made the change. I am sure winamp lite though uses about the same amount though.
