Hello sirs and misses,
I'm in dire need of an application that plays music, movies and what not and can also synchronize my mp3 player, an
YP-U3 from Samsung.
I've been manually adding music in a big Music folder on the Samsung. It takes much time to look for what I want to put versus what's already there. If I could just put everything I want in a Sync tab or something in an application and everything works automatically, that'd be swell as fuck. Maybe I want to edit the tags if they're wrong or missing stuff.
I know iTunes probably does that. Is it customizable enough for a nerd and light enough for a 4 year old computer? I'd have to try it in Foobar, any tutorials and shit to help?
For music I just use Winamp 5 with a skin I downloaded. It takes pretty long to open on bad days. Not really good at synchronizing, or maybe I haven't looked at the right place.

From the programs you've suggested, you're running Windows, I presume? It may be worth giving Windows Media Player a look. Opinions are polarised about it, but it can't hurt to load it up and give it a play, especially considering that you've probably already got it installed.
Yes I'm on windows. No I won't use Windows Media Player.
It uses UMS (USB Mass Storage) instead of MTP (Media Transfer Protocol), so it acts just like a flash drive.
Songbird should have a plugin for that. MediaMonkey is pretty nice too.
If you're looking for a media player with a fancy interface, try XBMC. It's not just for the Xbox anymore!
