Try it out the latest release from Nullsoft! The best and original MP3 player just got better.

What's New:

* fixed gen_ml selection bug
* added gen_ml option for no guessing at all
* made AVS and SPS support loop() in user code
* made AVS support megabuf() in user code
* made pro installer not prompt for regkey if already valid
* improved font directory retrieval in gen_ff
* added content rating system in Internet TV's listing
* added bandwidth usage statistic in Internet Radio/TV listings
* made media library guess from filename only when NO metadata found
* added seperate recent items tracking options for files/streams
* made installer better handle installing wa5 directly over wa3.
* added milkdrop docs to installer
* made uninstaller not remove winamp directory if not empty (user is now required to do so manually to avoid people going "oops")
* made installer check sonic px.dll versions and prompt for reboot accordingly
* fixed nsv metadata querying bugs
* fixed gen_ml guessing bugs for files with metadata that are not in DB

Two HD DVD format specifications are currently being promoted for standardisation. One is the ROM disc with 15GB of storage capacity on a single layer and 30GB on dual-layer media, and the other is a rewritable disc with 20GB of storage capacity. In November, the DVD Forum's steering committee approved the proposed HD DVD-ROM format in version 0.9.
