goraiders Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Foobar is so god damn difficult. I've spent hours upon hours trying to get it to look nice, and even when I found skins I couldn't. That was when I switched to mediamonkey. Nice halfway point between itunes and foobar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirbypuckett Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I was unimpressed w/ Foobar. I use it to convert FLAC and that's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggle Von Swift Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 foobar is by far the best program to listen to music with. as for customizing it's look, i could care less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akross Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I had a nice setup on my laptop, but lost it when my drive crashed. I have been thinking about playing around with it again though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monk0nuggets Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 What is the deal with this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akross Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Out of the box it is a stripped audio player with a very small memory footprint. It really shines through being customizable in almost every way imaginable. Lyrics panes, album art, window displays. But getting something you like isn't always easy...

thomas Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I used to have a nice set-up, but I opted to leave the default now since I hardly ever look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fridge Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Been using this program for years. Love the small memory footprint. Attempted to use a custom interface to make it look pretty, changed back to default in about 30 seconds. Why does something that you only use to play music need to look pretty? It doesnt make the music sound any better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goraiders Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I didn't even want it to look pretty, i just wanted it to keep the features of itunes and be easy to use. Mediamonkey isn't pretty at all, and can't be. Foobar on the other hand can look beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
