Hi, David,
I mostly use windows media player but on occasion I have used winamp. A friend of mine sent me his bookmarks for different stations which play in winamp. I have quite a few oldies stations as well as some from the big band era.

I love VLC media player! It is also a music editor, you can play DVD’s, or just play your music. There are many key commands for VLC. Press spacebar to play and pause, Shift+right arrow to fast forward and rewind a little bit, and press alt+arrow keys and CTRL+arrow keys to do the same by larger amounts. You can access a lot from the menus. VLC has been my favorite media player for two years now! David Moore Sent from Mail for Windows 10

Me too, or if anybody wants to gives tips on VLC for audio playback, I can try that too. Gom Audio is gone, I loaded albums into it, it started playing, and then pretty much locked up my machine, or at least the keyboard. Nothing would work, not its context menu, Windows key-x, I couldn't switch windows, you name it. So I hit the power button to shut down, rebooted, and uninstalled it. I'm fine setting things up and customizing, but my patience is like zero right now. If it can't even do the basic thing it's supposed to, it's gone.
