ok ive got winamp5 with mmd3 skin, pretty looking and also a few plugins in the background to clean up the sound, add some cool effects to make it sound cooler basically.
system resources used, 12megs ram, 0% cpu usage, yes 0%
real player does give you the option to not associate files, but unlike winamp, in my experience it didnt actually care what you said, it took the files anyway.
and ive not tried since the early days of real one because
1) it hardly ever worked
2) it installed spyware, or atleast what adaware called spyware.
and just out of curiosity i open the winamp media libray, and lo and behold the mem usage dropped to 8 megs.
