1By1 Lightweight MP3 Player

Many software mp3 players are bloated with features that most users rarely use or even know of. 1By1 is a small, resource-saving software mp3 player - the size of the player is only about 100K. It offers some interesting features that are worth a closer look.

It offers an alternative to using playlists by making it possible to directly play the music of a special folder, this should be nice for most users who do not use customized playlists that use files from different directories. It still is able to use and create playlists of course. 1By1 is able to resume playback at a later time, a feature that is not that common in software mp3 players.

1By1 supports the usual file extensions and offers basic file editing support which includes renaming and copying files during playback. I can see some applications for this lightweight mp3 player, especially on systems that are low on resources already.

I will stick to Winamp light on my main system though because I tend to listen to internet radio a lot and 1By1 is missing that feature. Still, it is a nice player and the directory play option makes it stick out a little bit.
