    I dont know of Media Match .. do you mean Music Match perhaps ?

    There are plenty of good free jukebox players out there.
    As I dont run 95 I cant realy help on MediaMatch.

    upgraded from 8.2 to the new 9.0. Now the "Convert files" feature is very, very slow. Have it on a P4 1.5mzh with 512megs ram. Tried to convert 10 mp3's that were encoded @ 256 down to 128. 30 mins later it was still trying to decode them down to 128. Fired onld 8.2 up on a 800mhz P3 with 128megs of ram... 10mins later all 10 mp3's re-coded from 256 to 128. Avoid MMJB 9.

    Yeah, I have Windows ME and when I tried to download new skins it froze my computer every time. Luckily, there's oldversion.com with good ol' version 6.1 (the last one before it got really slow?).

    You know, I may have a pre-version 5 version somewhere... Maybe I can donate it.

    Hey, since there's this big deal with the new Musicmatch and I've decided to downgrade, which is the best version?

    Right now I'm using 6.1 because it was before everything got really slow but after it did secondary sorting of my library (sort based on genre but sort within that by track title, for example). Unfortunately, I don't think it has automatic album art lookup and I'm sure it is missing other things. Is there a different one I should be using?

    (Or maybe there's another way to get ahold of the album art without upgrading...)

    Anyway, what's your opinion?

    Good Question DC ...

    I don't really have an answer to your question because that's why I'm in here too.

    I originally had ver. 4.0, I upgraded to ver. 7.50 and began using it at that time and before I knew it I had myself upgraded to ver. 8.20, that's when I realized that I had much more than I wanted or needed... I think the word is "bloated".
    Sometimes less is better but I lived with it although it has too many lights, bells and whistles for my liking, then today this thing appears....
    We are unable to verify your Musicmatch® Jukebox Plus upgrade key. Your key will soon expire and the Plus features will be disabled.

    I'm looking for the best version to downgrade to so that I can avoid all of the extra BS.
    I'm taking a look at MusicMatch Jukebox 7.2 (8.9 MB) it's actually smaller than the earlier MusicMatch Jukebox 6.0 (9.4 MB).

    Try using an alternative to MMJB.
    Quintessential should cover most of what MMJB does, and Quintessential is free.

    Thanks for the reply and the suggestion about Quintessential...

    Quintessential is a familiar GUI with lots of skins available since they have three forums dedicated to Skins.... General Skin Discussion, Help and Skin Development. I'm searching for function without all of the "light bells and whistles". I'm sure that Quintessential is a fine player but I'm looking for simple ... Last thing I want to do here is put anything down, specially when it's a freebie.

    I've been looking at Foobar2000 and since I'm not sure what version MM Jukebox does the job w/o the extras. I'm leaning to try Foobar2000.

    Regards...
