	Sorry. Agree with Warp on this one.

	Maybe Windows stuff has changed a lot. In the old days, for a lot of 
software that had both a free and paid version, it was often nonobvious 
how to navigate the site to find the free version. All too often, I'd 
tell a friend "Oh, you can do that task in this software." And then they 
would report to me that they never tried it because it was only a demo 
(i.e. they didn't realize there was a free version).

	And still, you've got to go and manually download Winamp, and install 
it, and then remove the installer. In Linux, with a simple command, you 
just install it.

	And Winamp is overkill as an mp3 encoder. Can you use it with other 
software to encode the audio that software produces?
