Yeah - I agree 3.0 sucks. two of the features I like most in 2 that 3 doesn't have:

Exporting playlist to html (easy way to show off what you have on your peg)
Resuming last song played when winamp starts (I hate how in winamp 3 it always starts at the top of the playlist.)

I used 3.0 for a short while and have now switched back to 2.9.
