I'm looking for a different MP3 player besides iTunes...
Needs to have playlist abilities, and an equalizer would be nice.
Anyone use a good prog. besides iTunes to play their music?

TIA-
Kevin

There are not many others but take a look at www.versiontracker.com for some jukebox utilities

Why do you need a different one?

I know... iTunes Is the BEST thing ever, I don't think there is a better jukebox than iTunes, It is simple yet very innovative.

well i think there are some other jukeboxs that iTunes could take some pointers from. one that i like on windows is musicmatch jukebox (it used to be avalible for mac but i have not used it for mac in awhile so im not sure) it has alot of really good features included, like renaming the mp3 files to match what is entered in the ID3 info, this saves alot of time renaming files manualy. and there is a bunch of other things. so iTunes is good, but it could be so much better.

The thing that urks me about iTunes is that when you import files into your playlist, it makes duplicate mp3's, and puts every single artist into individual folders... it makes it very difficult to manage my music if I want to delete, sort, etc... As like Winamp for Windows... I miss it pretty hardcore.

just go into itunes advanced preferences and deselect the "copy files to itunes library" option

I find iTunes easier - once you allow it to take complete control of your music...

Allow it to sort, manage and rename your music the way it wants and it's brilliant.

But if you're trying to make it do things your way, it gets difficult

I know a guy at work who swears by Audion. It has a "folder mirroring" playlist feature, which may please people who like to organize their MP3s in folders first. It's not free, though.
