What software do you use on your XP PC (if you have one, and do so) to play MP3s?

Do you recommend / disrecommend it?

I've been using Windows Media Player out of laziness default, but it's pretty crashy on my system, so probably about time I changed. In the past I've used RealPlayer and not much liked it, but that was many years ago so it might be better now...

I'm only interested in playing MP3s, not other media or stuff. None of my stuff is DRMed. And I'm not bothered about skins, whizzy animations, or other chrome. Or being able to rip / burn / tag / anything other than play.

And I have quite a lot of files (which may have something to do wth the crashiness), so good capabilities to sort / select / navigate are important.

Not tried it, but Songbird (http://www.songbirdnest.com/) is supposedly itunes-like and mozilla based. I assume it's cross platform.

Itunes works for me, but I only use it to manage stuff on my ipod, which it does very well

When the KDE4 port for windows is complete Amarok will be available too. Linux geeks say it's the dog's balls, I have no idea what it actually does or how it does it.

Songbird looks interesting, I'll give that a trial I think!
