<div class="IPBDescription">Anyone try it yet?</div> Winamp 2.91 was released today, and I was wondering if anyone here has given it a shot.
I'm currently using 2.8, and I hate Winamp 3 with a passion.
Is 2.91 just an update to facilitate an eventual migration to 3, or is it keeping the base of 2.8 and fixing some bugs? According to the changelog, it's just bug fixes and whatnot, but I'm reluctant to have those fixes (which I've never noticed) if it means hogging the system resources like 3 does.

I say get it, and if you don't like it go back to 2.8
Never noticed any severe drain on resources by the way...
It plays my music and doesnt eat my computers resources (yes I tried 3 when it came out) and my net connection is too crappy for internet radio so i'll stick with this one ^-^
At least i know it works.
The only thing I have noticed is that if you leave it running for about 10 hours, it just stops, and then it won't play songs on random you have to close winamp and load it up again ;D
