Winamp to shut down December 20, 2013. Get the latest version if you want it.

<< < (4/4)

Shades:
How can you not expect to get spit in the face by AOL about WinAmp? That is what llama's do...

 :P

Coming soon, from a former Winamp developer who has every intention to keep developing plugins for it: http://winampforum.com/

@app - Looks like the Winamp forum has been purged sometime between your post and now. :'(

That's not the official Winamp forum that's existed for years. That's a new one that was set up as a possible replacement for when the official one gets shut down. Not officially affiliated with AOL or Winamp. Possible that the owner doesn't want any posts there yet, till he gets official word on what will happen to the official forum. (perhaps Winamp will have a future, somewhere else? http://techcrunch.com/2013/11/21/source-microsoft-in-talks-to-buy-shoutcast-and-winamp-from-aol/ )

Something added to that site today, after I posted the link:

That yellow stripe was not there before.  ;)

I must admit I do miss the superb equalizer in Winamp. Haven't heard anything better (or even as good) on any general purpose MP3 player software I've used since. I'd be happy if they just released that much as open source.

Yeah, that's a useful site to find versions before they became bloatware.

Going to miss Winamp updates.  Have used it since Win95 days.  This thread has morphed into a memorial.

Giampy:
I have tried this famous Winamp.
The equalizer doesn't work (yes, it's set to ON), the volume is low and the Preamp doesn't work. Is there a way to solve these malfunctionings?
