(1 reply) #7 Posted by SpeaR on 21 Mar 2003 - 16:30: When will it use less resources ?

#8 Posted by Ti220 on 21 Mar 2003 - 17:03: I want Winamp3 lite or standard to come out.

#9 Posted by xp1ode on 21 Mar 2003 - 19:50: hmm... whats so good about winamp 2.9? i have winamp3 and it works fine??

#10 Posted by Spider_Man on 21 Mar 2003 - 20:20: Yeah same here. What gives?

#11 Posted by destrox on 21 Mar 2003 - 22:06: 2.9 is much less eyecandy, faster, and overall better for anyone that wants to multitask with things such as games. 2.x works flawlessly running in the background with games, 3.x takes up much more memory & cpu usage , which in turn takes away from anything else running.

(2 replies) #12 Posted by [EvilBeAr] on 22 Mar 2003 - 03:34: buy a new computer then... winamp 3 runs fine on my computer... i dont notice it during games. The mmd theme makes it nifty and small... suits me.

#13 Posted by devnulllore on 22 Mar 2003 - 23:43: WInamp 3.0 is ANYTHING but fast. When it was first released I tried it, and have given it the benefit and tried it several more times, but gave up. Too slow, less features I like and older fav skins make it crash. Trying 2.91 beta now.....

#14 Posted by bangbang023 on 23 Mar 2003 - 17:13: The fact that it takes 2 seconds longer to load bothers you people that much? That's the only slowness you'll see is in loadtime.
