A whole bunch of sound quality questions...

For me, its all about quality of sound. Extra resource use doesnt bother me (unless it is something that is always memory resident like antivirus software and such). And the MAD plug-in for Winamp doesnt support streams. If you want to do a good comparison of the differences in winamps default decoder and the MAD decoder download Coolplayer. It implements the MAD decoder much better than the Winamp plug-in. The Winamp plug-in is a very poor example of how good MAD is.
