Also a edit in it can do aacplus streaming
I wouid try it out but it's platform specific.

As for memory, FooBar doesn't do video (not that I care about video in iTunes) so that may be some of the size that iTunes consumes. I checked an iTunes on a PeeCee and it's 16MB. How big a footprint does FooBar have?
