Foobar2000 is a freeware audio player for Windows developed by Peter Pawlowski, a former freelance contractor for Nullsoft. Featuring a minimalist interface, it also boasts many features for metadata support and high-quality audio output. The theoretical maximum sampling rate and bit depth for audio output are both far in excess of the capacities of even professional-grade audio equipment. To maximize the audio fidelity of consumer-grade equipment, it provides noise shaping and dithering. It features a number of official and third-party components which add many additional features. While the core is closed source, the author provides an extensive SDK under the BSD license. Since version 0.9, foobar2000 supports Windows 2000 and later releases only. Features: audio formats supported natively: MP1, MP2, MP3, MP4, MPC, AAC, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC / Ogg FLAC, WavPack, WAV, AIFF, AU, SND, CDDA, WMA; more audio formats supported through optional components, official or third-party; full unicode support; customizable user interface layout (new in version 0.9.5); advanced tagging capabilities; support for ripping Audio CDs as well as transcoding all supported audio formats using the Converter component; ReplayGain support - both playback and calculation; customizable keyboard shortcuts; open component architecture allowing third-party developers to extend functionality of the player.… More Edit

fastest player with the most efficient interface that i've used. the default interface is terrible looking (i use it anyway), but you can spend hours modifying it.
Hey,folks!Don't you think fb2k is more a audio manager(http://wakoopa.com/categories/audio-video/management) than a player??
The best music player
You don't need bloated WinAmp that starts for dozens of seconds. This works fast and does its primary job... Playing damn music.
По мне так лучший проигрыватель музыки. Много настроик , читает большенство форматов , ну и наконец просто удобен.
Просто лучший плэйер. Огромные возможности благодаря плагинам, полностью настраиваемый интерфейс, быстрый, лёгкий. Лучший.
a new philosophy in music listening and organizing
Awesome player! Windows only. :( It runs beautifuly in Wine, though.
all time fav
Best sound mader
Just the best player.
NO LAG :D
Not useful.
very light on any pc, I like,but not using it that much
the most compact interface, stable, fast and powerful!
I especially like its media library function.
If only it has a smarter file operation(every time you need to stop the song first before file operation), I'll give it full marks.
