Default Best Media Player

So I have tried out itunes, mediamonkey, and winamp and I am still trying to figure out which one would hold the most tracks. Does anyone know the answer to this puzzle as to who holds the title for holding onto the most tracks without bogging down. I dropped 15k tracks on mediamonkey at one point and it was slow and bogging down pretty harsh, even though mediamonkey claims to be able to handle 20k tracks. I disproved that notion. Someone got any input on overclocking(for lack of a better term)a particular media player just to see what it can handle?

Cool

Dude go back thru your Max Pc mags I know there is something about some player that's supposed to hold up to 50k songs.

Impossible!

I read each and every article in all my rags throughout the day, and I never came across anything that talks about media players. Not a damn thing.

Thus far winamp takes the prize as for most tracks on a media player without bogging down. I tested it and I could drop almost 30K tracks on it without bogging down. Anything more than that and it starts crashing. itunes crashed at less than 10K so piss on Apple products. Never bit into an apple I liked yet. Microsoft aint that much better with that crap windows media player.

Media monkey and Winamp are the top contenders. Prove me wrong ..I dare ya

I can't stand iTunes, but I like WMM personally.

Winamp used to crash on me constantly, ended up using AIMP2 before I got rid of my music collection.

Friends would swear up and down on fubar2000 also

GOT RID OF YOUR MUSIC COLLECTION???? How could you?? I'm moving all my music onto my Windows Home Server and I'm finding out I have about 75GB of music. I really need to go through and delete the duplicates.

I remember the days back in the Win95 days when I started this music collection. It's been with me a long time. Back when it would take an hour to download 1 song.

Oh and I use Winamp. Never heard of AIMP2
