foobar2000 foobar2000-theme Updated Fleshgrinder / foobar2000 Star 3.

I've tried JRiver in the past, and while it's also very flexible, I think it's more aimed at casual users, albeit still being a niche player. A playlist manager for foobar2000, using Spider Monkey, to save and load (auto)playlists on demand, synchronizing. If you like to tinker or just customize things to your liking fb2k is for you. Also fb2k was one of the first to support Replaygain. While I do tagging with beets nowadays, the fb2k tag editor is still the best for me. If you just listen to music, I don't think it matters much, but I also convert a large amount of files between formats, I like to resample using specific plugins, I apply custom dither etc. For me, foobar2000 does everything I need. It broke here and there with new plugin versions, but I always managed to fix the source code so that it continued to run. I've been using the Spotifoo skin for years now. Actually, "Stop after current" in the playback menu was my feature request. I remember when Peter quit Winamp and developed foobar and I was in the IRC channel where the first versions were released. I have used foobar2000 since it was v0.1 or whatever was the first.
