about 30MB with the library visable, just under 8MB in mini mode. But on a system with 4GB RAM, who really gives a rats arse? :P

My Foobar using around 10,000 kb. Its also set up to bypass Windows kmixer and can be configured for 5.1 audio easily.

nothing will replace winamp for me unless it has global hotkey support.

I still use Winamp. Does exactly what it says on the tin.

Im a foobar user myself, Im not a skin fan, just like plain simple GUIs.  Foobar is very functional in that it just plays my music, but it has power that WMP doesnt and thats what I like :)

I also do like it how Foobar only uses about 4mb on my system, while WMP11 uses over 20mb.  Should I be bothered with 2GB?  Maybe not.

Still, I use WMP for ripping CDs to Lossless WMA :)

What does Foobar do that WMP doesnt? Seems to me that WMP offers more than foobar as you resort to ripping cds with it.

If ripping I use a properly configured EAC and flac.exe

Doesnt WMP connect to the net to check stuff ? so it takes time to start.

I use Foobar for whatever to MP4 conversion.  I use WMP for ripping as its easier.

Foobar can do all that too. It can also on the fly transcode between formats if you so wish, it has a dedicated HDD streamer.

You can also add any number of plugins to it that you like to increase functionality. By comparision, WMP is a bit balls IMO :)
