last used musicmatch back when it was version 6, and even paid for a full lifetime upgrade. My opinion of that program for some time now is that it is bloated eyecandy - it also has poor or nonexistent support for the formats I use now: FLAC/Ape/MusePack (MPC)/AAC/Ogg-Vorbis.
I Do not create any MP3s anymore unless I absolutely have to for my websites, but I will DL them from sites like Emusic.com or when getting Old Time Radio shows on the net.

MusicMatch is just too dependent on the mouse for my tastes - Foobar2k lets me do everything from the keyboard and does not require any kind of installation or registry entries (at least the .06x build that I still use)

my view of Winamp 3 is not much better, but at least it has support for a decent range of formats (but both WA 2.x and 3 both still feel horribly bulky IMO compared to foobar2k).
