Mp3 faq - WinAmp without a plug-in

Do I need a WinAmp plug-in? What happens if I try to run WinAmp without a plug-in?

You do not need a plug-in. WinAmp works perfectly without any plug-ins - or more correctly, it works perfectly with only the plug-ins which come with WinAmp by default when you install it.
Plug-ins vary considerably in their complexity of installation, configuration and usage. Be sure to read any instructions which come with them, for example on their accompanying web pages or in README.TXT files. Some plug-ins provide very pleasing displays or useful effects and you may well wish to explore them.
