Talking Bloatware, of course

I use creative labs playcenter. It came with my audigy and i really like it. It supports AC3 music and the EAX extensions can be used here.

I mainly use winamp... but I use Music2Match for ripping and sometimes playing...

I have some friends who use Sonique, but it just seemed like too much of a resource hog... I like my music to play in the back-ground, not to be the MAIN program running.

what is encoded in AC3? The software wouldn't install on this system, but installed when I was using Win2K.

and Ladagoboy, Music2Match? is that the same as MusicMatch Jukebox?

i use iTunes or apples finder and quicktime

ac3 is a digital audio output. There is also aac, which is MPEG-4 audio. It is better sounding than mp3 and the file size is smaller.

hey I have that too but I didn't know there were AC3 and EAX music.. i thought only used those playing games.

I usually use winamp, but sometimes use my remote and turn on the creative one =) it is kinda annoying though cause it is hard with so many songs to find it using the remote and also adding new songs i am not sure it detects it unless i reimport the list =P

EAX can be used with any program, you just have to set it in the EAX control panel.

I use Music Match.

Very little, I'm affraid. There's some game soundtracks, and a few hobby stuff...I've found some jazz a techno here and there.

I really enjoy sitting ppl down at my computer and having them listen to some of the ac3 music-very cool-5 separate sound locations.

I wonder if XM radio can download and decode AC3...

my old hardware dvd decoder outputted 5.1 in ac-3, which then could be run to a reciever or whatever. It sounded really good, but my DVD changer sounds much much better

Winamp mainly. It has a lot of cool plug-ins which makes it a very versatile program.

Sonique sometimes.

Music Match Jukebox. Although, I have the free version, so it takes a little while to download.

Cool Edit Pro when I wanna fiddle with the .wav file.
