The DivX people do tout their codec as "the MP3 of video", last I checked.

I guess that would make XviD the Ogg Vorbis of video -- free, open source, and better. :)

I imagine the ones that work in winamp are Mpeg1s. Winamp currently(v5.01) doesn't support Mpeg2 playback... unless you have a special plugin that I don't know about. :/
