bare bones media player foobar 2000 is a bare bones media player for MP3, WAV, OGG and other media formats. It comes without any bells and whistles, however, under the hood, the program offers quite a few features, including customizable title formatting and interface layouts, WAV conversion, Equalizer, Resampler, MP3 tag writing, playlists, music album, CD player, drag/drop and more. It also includes all of the standard features like shuffle, random play etc. foobar 2000 runs in the system tray and uses very few system resources. Additional components (including a Monkey`s Audio decoder) are available to extend the functionality. Copyright Snapfiles.com

Plays subfolders if wanted. Small footprint. 5 stars by tolworthy Aug 21, 2012 (Read all my 3 reviews)
This did exactly what I wanted within 10 seconds of installing. No complaints! But one suggestion. Foobar starts with an empty list: Developers! Please fill the list with instructions for very first time users! It took me ten seconds to try "file -> add location" but then it was perfect: it immediately had all my music, including subfolders. So I clicked "shuffle" and it just worked. Goodbye Windows Media Player (with your slow load, bloated footprint, awkward interface and work-stopping updates). Hello Foobar, with just music! showShow review details
Audio perfection! 5 stars by orion79 Jan 23, 2011 (Read all my 2 reviews)
A -MUST HAVE- player for every person who respects himself/herself!! 1:Supports an awful lot of different formats 2:With the proper components you can bypass windows mixer and set the output as an ASIO DEVICE, WASAPI OR KERNEL STREAMING!! How COOL is that! 3:Feel free to configure Foobar in your own specific way 4:Great management of your music library and mass tagging options(by using just a component!!) 5:Many encoding formats and options 6:Almost non-existent memory footprint 7:For those of you feeling uncomfortable to use the player please check out the guide and the charts at Wikipedia,under:Music player comparison (software) 8:If you are still not sure about this,return to your familiar player. showShow review details
If you just want to listen to your music..... 5 stars by oldgoat Mar 02, 2009
...this one beats the competition hands down! I'm a very recent convert - 0.9.6.1 was my first version installed - and I haven't got all the features working yet, but for what its designed to do, it rocks! I've tried WMP - very graphic, smart, but simply hopeless if you throw flac, ogg, ape etc at it, or try to read those tags. I've tried WinAmp, and got fed up with the messy interface and fiddly controls. Then I bumped into FooBar..... Organise, tag, convert, play, even watch the EQ visuals if you want, but all with no fuss. I haven't found a music file format it can't play either. If you're prepared to spend a little time learning it, and take the trouble to download the extra components, it simply delivers the goods. The folks on the forum are helpful, no matter how daft a newbie question you ask, too! showShow review details
