Powerful Winamp-style media player which supports MP3 and other audio formats as well as radio stations.
AIMP is an attractive and light-weight MP3 player, a perfect alternative to competing players like Winamp.
While many view the design and layout of AIMP as superior to that of Winamp, we were surprised by the sheer functionality included with such a media player. It features crisp audio output for media files like MP3 and also fully supports playback of Audio CDs. What's more is the conversion functionality which gives users of AIMP the ability to copy the content of Audio CDs onto the hard drive, thus also being an Audio CD ripper on top of a standard MP3 Player for Windows.
Apart from support of Audio CD and MP3 files (and around 20 other audio formats), AIMP supports a long list of different audio formats which can be arranged into simple playlists and saved for future use. While you're enjoying music, you can also let out the inner DJ and use AIMP's 18-band audio equalizer and improve the quality of the sound it produces.
Among other features AIMP sports is audio sound recording, cd ripping, audio conversion, an extensive file search, versatile global hotkeys and a fully-featured audio library.
So if you're sick of Winamp crashing or you simply want to update your everyday MP3 player on Windows from something produced in the 90s to something more modern, AIMP may just be what you're looking for.
