:: Poll :: Windows Media Player vs. iTunes
I always use and always have used my good ol' trusty Windows Media Player to listen to and organize my music on the computer. The laptop I'm currently using already had iTunes on it, but it was an older version so I updated it. But then I thought, "Why should I have this on my computer if I'll never use it?" But I didn't really want to uninstall it, so I loaded all my music into iTunes. I started using it and have found a lot of really cool features. But putting all my music in there makes another copy of all my music files. Wouldn't that use up more space on the hard drive? My main question is: Should I trash the iTunes altogether and just stick with my WMP and have more space on the computer, or should I start using iTunes more often to get a better feel for it, or do I just use both alternately? Which one do you think is better,, or do you like them both equally?

Re: :: Poll :: Windows Media Player vs. iTunes
I used WMP all the time when I first got my MP3 player. Then I upgraded to an iPod so I used iTunes, and I really enjoyed how organized it was. I liked how I could add cover artwork without it messing up like it would on WMP, and it can support more files, (mp3, m4a, wma). Sometimes I would download m4a files without knowing what they were, and they wouldn't work in WMP. Overall I prefer iTunes mainly because of how organized it is.
I still use WMP from time to time, so don't get rid of it, because you never know. I don't think it would use up that much more space on your laptop, but maybe it's a sign to get rid of songs you don't listen to anymore. Hope this helped and good luck!

Re: :: Poll :: Windows Media Player vs. iTunes
Well, I broke down and got an iPod last semester, and it only works with iTunes, so now I HAVE to use iTunes. I still have my old MP3 player, though, and I play my *.WMA files there. So, I'll just keep them both.
