The Best Music Player Application for Windows

[ZeroDay]

There are a lot of great music players for Windows, and it's next to impossible to make a broad "best" statement that applies to everyone. But that doesn't stop the powerful, lightweight, and customizable MusicBee from winning our hearts for the best music player on Windows.P

Our former favorite, Winamp, has shut down—but that isn't why we've changed our minds on this one. "Dead" apps are still worth using if they're the best—we've just decided, after lots of testing and deliberation, that Winamp is no longer the best music player in our minds. You'll still find Winamp in the competition section at the bottom, as well as in our list of the five best desktop music players.

Foobar2000 gives me good sound, I feel the music with it

 

[hektor]

Adn my vote goes for Clementine
Clementine is a modern music player and library organizer

Clementine is a multiplatform music player. It is inspired by Amarok 1.4, focusing on a fast and easy-to-use interface for searching and playing your music.

AIMP3 with custom skin from devianart makes it looks cool

 

[mrwaldo]

Music: Foobar2000

Used Foobar for a few years, it is still amazing and useful for me.
