I have been using ITunes for years for music management & playback but it has many faults. So last night I decided to Google Winamp and see if I could download it and to my surprise it's back. It's now on version 5.8 but before I decide to spend hours adding and tagging my music I was wondering if there is a better option.
What music player / Management software do you all use for listening day to day? Mac Or PC.

I use winamp, but I don't use any managment software. Just have the music in sensible folders.

I just have the track number in the title I don't bother with tags, if everything was .wav i'd do it the same way.
Never got on well with tags all that incorrect tagging nonsense, trying to find the original track on the hard drive...
certainly would never rely on managment software that may go out of date or just doesn't know what its doing. Just easier to keep it in folders I find.

course that does cause some issues I suppose, Cream Anthems 2000 should really be in with the other Cream Anthems albums in the house folder...but there's house and trance on the cds. Pffft. System ain't perfect but I'm happy with it.

I dont mind managing software, or whatever you call the things MP3tag.de and foobar2k can do, but I prefer to manually update all tags outside the artist/title/album tags

I use foobar2000 at home and work for listening and managing the files (ie. write the tags etc). It's really versatile.
I rip CD's with Windows Media Player. On the go i use Sony's nw-ws413 mp3-player-headphones.

I too was pleasantly surprised a couple months back when I searched winamp and saw the update. Been using that since.
No real management for my files. Just have backups on different pc's.

AIMP took over from winamp. 8 years ago when AOL sold NULLSOFT to some more tards that killed shoutcast and the development of winamp

use https://www.mp3tag.de/en/ like most people, to batch convert filename's to tag's 1000s of tracks, and get rid of all the junk from the shops and covert art using custom search and match masks
if you want your tags to work on all hardware, go into the options and set the format to ID32.3 ISO-8850-1, which you can also do and convert existing tags, to the correct format with CTRL+A and save all
