I have a windows machine and was wondering what player would work most like the old cassette machines so I can go back a few seconds and listen to a part over and over again?
I have tried the default media player but using the mouse takes a lot of skill.

Winamp allows you to use the right and left arrow keys to change the playback position by 5 seconds.

Insurance Excuse:
The accident was due to the road bending.

Yeesss ... "Windows Media Player" ... would you have a second choice, something that was more "focused on word/sentance-structured sound?  Like a cassette player, but "richer"?  Would be mighty handy if - if there was something out there that permitted one to "jump back" to the start of a word, or "jump back"/repeat a sentence.  AND IF IT COULD make the coffee & scratch my back, that'd be nice too!  Mark.

Suggest that you look at - http://www.nch.com.au/wavepad/ - this free software effortlessly allows one to move back & forth inside an .MP3 file.  Very nice - downloadable - free.

One more "point" about WAVEPAD, then I'll stop ... WAVEPAD permits one to slow-down the audio - even to SAVE that slown-down audio!  Further, it permits one to "change the timber" of the sound ... and, of course, there are many OTHER sound effects, but these first two shouldn't be overlooked!  Thanks for reading this.  Mark.
