Could this be the end of Winamp?

[Daeval]

I think the least they should do to give it an horourable death is to opensource it. It might revive the whole project.

or an old school final 2.9x release. open-source route would be better though in my opinion.

Give me 5 anyday. 3 was disastrous, few people would disagree. But in classic-skin mode, I don't honestly see any difference significant. between 2 and 5.

Classic mode is the best, I can't stand Winamp 3 and it's new flashy crap. But if you think about it, what more could have been done to Winamp? Hell, I thought the earlier Winamp 2.x hit the nail right in the head.

 

Winamp! It really whips the llama's ass!

Amen, winamp 2.x was the pinnacle.

Truth. But with Windows XP, I've grown into 5's Modern skin. Preferences change with time I guess, but as you said, 2 was the pinnacle.

damn, WinAMP dying is kinda like Linux Dying, it was awesome, free, and....you get it.

 

Ive been using it for sooooooo long its rediculous, see how AOL screws everything up?

Winamp's Death Greatly Exaggerated

 

I'll go ahead and get this out of the way: No we weren't axed. We haven't even seen anyone with an axe. There was this one guy who came up to us to axe us a question, but that's about it. Much like Tupac Shakur and/or Jesus Christ, our deaths have been greatly exaggerated.

Oh for god's sake, the internet is way too full of misinformation.

[OverlordMondo]

Yeah, dirty bastards. Need to be shot

 

I use the most recent winamp, but I use the same skins I've has for a long time.

[Elazul Yagami]

i still use winamp 2.87
