In Winamp there are two choices for playlist formats, .m3u and .pls. What is the difference between the two, and why are there two?

Why are there two? Sounds like a metaphysical question. You have one format "M3U", and another, "PLS". Why are there two? Because there is one more than one.
Save a playlist in both formats and then open both files in Notepad to see the difference. There isn't much really, they both store the playlist in text format.
I would use M3U as it is more widespread. Is PLS simply a Winamp playlist?
