    • Better interface than Windows Media player
    • 100s of cool and edgy skins
    • Nice looking graphic equalizer
    • Nice music visualizer
    • Easy to make playlists
    • Tiny looking player which gelled with the early-mid 2000s vibe

    And most importantly, it really whips the Llama’s ass. TBH, there aren’t a lot of serious reasons. It was just slightly better than the default music player. I personally feel the skins played a significant part.

      I wasn’t that much a fan of the skins and found the interface of winamp very small and fiddly.

      The milkdrop plugin however was rather nice though.

          Yeah, but we are talking 2000-2005 or so.
