this ship has sailed (or lets say the llama is dead since) years ago Sad

main player for years, even more than a decade but music consume has changed. i still have most of my music offline cause i prefer having it always available but most people wont come back to winamp so its not likely to survive long even after rereleasing a completely overhauled v6

I never stopped using Winamp (currently on v5.666 from 2013), so this is awesome news!

Haha oh man this brings back memories Very Happy

I'm practically not using traditional mp3s anymore either these days (mostly because laziness has reached unsustainable levels), but it's great to see that the beloved llama is ready to have his old ass whipped again!

Buy your music men!

Still using it at home & at work, still rocking! Good news, but Radionomy will turn Winamp 6 into a streaming-conglomerate piece of shit.

Thanks but no thanks. Spotify is much more easier and hassle free. Yes it does miss some artists, songs and records but other than that it's a no-brainer.
