How I ended up with Mac

I've switched over to mac as well. However, Finder is my #2 annoyance. #1 being I so fricking love Winamp, and nothing has come close to that on a mac (or linux) for that matter. And sure, winamp did come out with a mac app, but it was useless I found...

You have brought up a great point—why on earth is there no true quality alternative to iTunes out there? Are we Mac users that complacent?

There is. Try Enqueue.

It looks the same. It's still Lists. Lists lists lists. I'm tired of playing music in lists. I want something that organizes and helps me discover music the way I think about it. Lists are not a good interface for this and I don't understand how they persist to this day.

play[1] and cog[2] used to be good, but it doesn't look like either of them have been updated in quite a long time...though the bitbucket repo for cog is showing some action, so maybe it will become active again at some point.

Vox[3] was also pretty decent last time I fiddled with it (quite a while ago).

It's been a while since I've used Winamp, but from what I remember, VLC has a similar interface and functionality.

Question: can you run Winamp in Wine?

Easily answered:

I think the above translates to "no, not really."
