Best music playing software for LARGE mp3 collections.

[4745454b]

Its time to find new software again. My wife and I have a VERY large music collection. (100GB+) We used to use Realjukebox, which stopped working well about 80GBs ago. After that we found Media Monkey which worked great. But we are finding that its dropping songs from its memory so the search doesn't really work anymore. For those of you who have large mp3 collections, what program similar to MM would you use? If none exist, what program would use you no matter what?

^With that requirements I think that the best option will be iTunes.

Yuck. I hope there are other options. Hoping to try Songbird and/or Jet audio over my next weekend. Shame about Foobar as it had potential.

I'm getting tired of that suggestion to. Does winamp do what I want? Last I tried (version 4?) it didn't.

I use MAGIX MP3 Deluxe. The cool thing about this software, especially with large music collections, is that that it has functions that organise your music based on features within the music and display the results graphically. This can be great for making playlists and making connections between different genres, the only software I know that does this. It has lots of other great tools the help ID, listen to internet radio, etc. Highly recommended. http://www.magix.com/gb/music-software/

Interesting looking program but I'm not sure I want to buy it for 60pounds. Yes there is a free trial but if I like it...

So since I've made this post I've moved onto win7. Still using Media Monkey as well. I might try a new version of it as the problem continues. And I know I reimported all the songs as I had to when I loaded win7. I tried Foobar, didn't like it for reasons I don't remember. Maybe I will try winamp as I have nothing to lose.
