What are some Alternative's to Winamp that play mp3 and AAC streams?

Has anyone ventured out and tried any of the many other mp3 players other than Winamp, I know I tunes is decent, and Foobar 2000 is okay, but a little complicated for me. Ive looked and looked for other players to try out, not that im having any problems with Winamp, its just that I have used Winamp for the past 10 years and wouldnt mind having some new eye candy and different features. Most of the mp3 players ive come across lately seem to be greatly outdated, and probably dont support AAC. Well, if anyone knows of any other good audio players on the web, just let me know, and if you would, try and post a link, I would greatly appreciate any info you guys have about other mp3 players. Perhaps Winamp really still is the only good player that supports mp3 ogg and aac.
 
Windows media player will obviously play its own in addition to mp3 and AAC+ (with the orban plugin installed), the only downside is it will not show the metadata with the exception of the Orban plugin which will show metadata from an AAC stream
 
Thanks, but I already know everything about WMA.... I hadnt updated my Winamp in awhile, so I went to their site and downloaded the latest version, which has a new skin which can be changed color, so I think i'll just stick with winamp for now, since I know it will play everything I listen to. Another important thing for me is mp3 pro,,, it works in winamp if you can find the plugin for it, but I dont think any other players will support it. Their is a new player out called Song Bird that looks pretty cool, I downloaded it but couldnt get it to work, so I just went with the latest winamp.
