The main advantage of using a WMMV application is that it takes care of the complex conversion process for you and also handles the conversions for you automatically without requiring the knowledge and assistance of a program like Winamp Classic. If you still want to use the Winamp Classic application on Vista but you are on a limited budget, there is an option of converting your audio files to WMA using one of the many (Wmicam File) applications which is available freely on the internet. The ideal situation to use Winamp Classic on your Vista PC would be to first download the free software and then transfer all your files from your digital music files to it via your USB or network-attached storage device. The problem is converting PCM to other file formats as the compression used by Winamp Classic can get extremely slow on fast systems, which is one reason why people tend to choose WMA as their format of choice for converting audio files to other file formats. Audio files most commonly use the PCM (Pulse-code modulation) format which can be converted to wma and avi. To make Winamp Classic stream correctly you will need to have the correct code for all the formats that are commonly played on a computer. Although Winamp Classic also supports audio playback, it cannot handle most of the recent audio formats or even high definition video. Winamp Classic is well-known media player software, which creates customized playlists and made it easy to listen to your favorite music.
