I spent about an hour trying to find a simple application to copy the files referenced by my Winamp playlist to a USB pendrive, in order to take them with me. Tough luck, most of them are either missing libraries, or plain not working properly on Windows 7. Therefore, I rolled my own.
This application will keep what you need to do to a bare minimum, it's just ABC:
- Choose the playlist, or drag it on the app
- Choose the destination directory
- Select options
- You can prefix your filenames with the playlist position, in order to preserve it. 3 digit numbers only at the time
- You can move the files instead of copying
- Click Go!

- Simple to use
- Compatible with Windows 7
- Uses .NET 4.5
