Slow. Buggy. Inconsistent interface elements all across. All familiar shortcuts that we got so used to over the past three years, all gone. All the older plugins and skins redundant with the release of this version.
On the good part, it has a good playlist that lets you sort songs by album or genre - something I've always wanted in Winamp. But there are 2.x plugins that do exactly this, and integrate into Winamp in a much better way. Winamp3 also supports freeform skins, which let you really change the apppearance, but I prefer fixed shape skins because I know exactly where the controls and displays are, so I don't get lost. Its difficult to get used to the creativity of freeform skinners as soon as you switch the skins..
Winamp 2.x for me. Forever.
