It's the exact same app on both platforms. If it's decent on the Mac, it will be decent on Windows (unless the suckiness is in the fact that the UI doesn't translate well from Aqua to Win, but noone's made that complaint so far). > There are better music players for Windows.

The filesystem is not a good way to organise music. For small libraries it's OK. To navigate big ones, it blows. WinAmp and its entourage of clones is only tolerable in that they don't foist a hateful solution for that problem on you, but that doesn't make them good. iTunes makes a decent stab at the problem, interface-wise. It has very peculiar ideas in various implementation aspects, though. Regards, -- Aristotle Pagaltzis // <http://plasmasturm.org/>;There's stuff above here
