I have over 5000 mp3's, and would like some way to manage them. Sometimes I'm only in the mood for a certain type of music. Winamp has a library window as well as a playlist window. You can use the library windows to search your entire library on different variables such as Song title, artist or genre. Then you can drag and drop them into your play list and listen to them. You can save the play list for future use. You can also use the library window to burn to CD, but thats something I don't really need. Is this the same type of Library management you say that XMMS has? What menu is it on? Because I can't seem to find it. Thanks for you help, -Mike
