Looking for an MP3 player

[Eric]

Good morrow everyone,

Looking for a small footprint MP3 player, don't want or need all the
bells and wistles, just something that isn't going to eat a lot of
resources, should be able to have a playlist or maybe a drag and drop.
Thw key here is small, so I can play a few of my card games and have it
play in the background.

thanks


Eric

I agree with John Jay Smith.

XMPLay is the best lfreeware lightweight MP3/MOD player available!

Small and lightweight but a heavyweight performer! All of the other
players I have tried stutter on one of my low-spec PCs when surfing or
doing other stuff but Billy just plays without problems.

I agree. Foobar 2000 is the best player. I recommend Foobar 2000
because it plays MP3 & many other formats & new formats are added thru
plugins.
