I think today local file players are a niché, thank to streaming services like Spotify. 10 years back I remember Foobar 2000, Winamp and all these players that could play my collection. Couple of years ago, when I was trying to rekindle my love for some Polish band and listen to their music from a hard drive, I couldn't find a decent player for Mac (Vox is okay, but I found it late).

Also, fun fact: I remember Winamp being the music player. Now it's discontinued for years.

Yes, Winamp was leader of the pack back in the day. I think it is still alive though? winamp.com

I had the old info, Winamp was acquired by some other company and is, in fact, alive. Sorry for misinformation.
