Spider Player

Actual user comment from gatzet.com:
"Music player software like winamp is packed with rich of features but sometimes for an old PC it is too big. You need small yet capable to play multiple audio format with high quality sound."

Actual user comment from winmatrix.com:
"Spider Player has insanely good sound id say its slightly better than foobar quality wise. (I would think so too considering that's the whole point behind it). Also it uses the kick ass BASS sound library. It also has a pretty nice front end to shoutcast."

"After all the the players I've used, and I've used a lot, mainly Winamp and WMP, I have ditched all others for Spider Player. This doesn't have all the garbage that other players have and is EXACTLY why I love it. It simply works and works WELL."
