foobar2000 for music. Ugly but full featured (and low memory usage), with an audio converter too.

Zoom Player for video (I also like media player classic)

Foobar, and you should be ashamed for not listing it in the poll.

As for video, MPC or VLC depending on what it is.

For most of my music - foobar2000 running in 24bit kernel stream mode.

For almost everything else, be it unsupported music format that foobar doesn't recognize, or movie files I use Media Player Classic, Cowon jetAudio, or PowerDVD Ultra.

I have finally found a Nullsoft Tray Control equivalent for foobar today (foo_AdvancedControl) and from now on it will use foobar instead of Winamp. And I think it I'm beginning to to like the foobar GUI

No foobar2000? I hear it's pretty popular among the audiophiles. Btw, Winamp here. I like the new skin in version 5.5. I used to use LayerONE skin to get the same functionality.

wmp11 for anything and everything. winamp is useless now, the old theory of it using less ram is useless as wmp11 uses less, wmp classic is way way too basic. itunes is a piece of crap, high cpu/mem usage, clunky and so slow in terms of performance on all computers i've used it on. wmp11 organizes my liabary for media center nicely and is well integrated into windows.

Foobar2000. Less CPU, better sound quality and low memory usage.

Compared to what? Winamp for example: CPU, RAM and disk space usage is the same as foobar. The sound quality is arguable because it's a subjective feeling. I personally don't hear any difference between winamp and foobar.
