quick quote from their site

in_cube is a Winamp plugin intended to play streamed audio formats found in Nintendo Gamecube games video games.
For info on what games are supported, check out the publicly-editable GC Stream DB

Currently it supports:
* ADX (with looping for "03" and "04" versions)

* ADP a.k.a. DTK (only playback at 48KHz Stereo) - note that some games (Battalion Wars) have the ADP extension for DSP files, these will be recognized as DSP

* DSP variants:
-o standard (including simultaneous playback of left and right channel files as stereo)
- "RS03" (Metroid Prime 2)
- SPT/SPD (Bust-a-Move 3000, Hello Kitty Roller Rescue) (only for single songs, not banks)
- "Cstr" (Star Fox Assault, Donkey Konga)
- STM (Paper Mario 2, Fire Emblem) - must be renamed DSP to not interfere with winamp's support for another format called STM
- HPS (HALPST) (Super Smash Bros. Melee, Kirby's Air Ride, Killer7, etc.)
- IDSP (Super Mario Strikers)
- MSS (Second Sight)
- GCM (Lego Star Wars)
- Monopoly Party's screwy single header stereo - must be renamed .MPDSP
- ISH/ISD (Pokemon XD)
- YMF (WWE Wrestlemania X8) - most files work
- RSD (RSD3GADP type)
- IDSP (Harvest Moon)
- GCub (.wav) (NHL Hitz Pro) - must be renamed .dsp

* 16-bit big endian PCM
- RSD (RSD2PCMB and RSD3PCMB)
- AST (Mario Kart: Double Dash, Super Mario Galaxy)

* RSF (Metroid Prime) - experimental

* Playstation ADPCM (not used on GC, but...)
- VAG
- ADS
- NPSF (Ace Combat 5)

* a bunch more I need to add to this list...

If you were using in_dsp or in_adx you should remove them before installing in_cube.

There's also foo_adpcm for foobar2000 that plays back some of these formats... Nothing really new though.

having new (nonDRMed)formats is nice in itself.
