  • No mention of license in this article. Are they going to be releasing it through a git of some kind?

  • this is cool but what is the point now given all the options today and the way we listen to music now?

    • Even back then the real power of winamp was in plugins. You can't get away with the truly hacky crap and windows anymore.

  • First: Surprised it still exists.

    Second: More surprised there are Apple AppStore and Google PlayStore links on the bottom.

  • Finally! Couple weeks back I downloaded it again for the first time in probably 10 years and it really made me wonder why they basically fucked it up and abandoned it
