    “To take on streaming”

    In a partnership with Deezer, Winamp will be reborn as a completely new player with its own premium subscription service, with Deezer providing the white-label streaming technology and licensed catalog.

    So, basically a nostalgic skin for Deezer.

    These owners are just whatever lawyers have gotten ahold of the WinAMP trademark.

    Anybody remember when they attempted to push out the source code for WinAMP on GitHub and failed miserably? Or included NFTs?

    Will be reborn? If they had actually released Winamp under a real open source licence, it would have been reborn years ago! A bit late for it now!

    I have the feeling the new version’s tagline will be something along the lines of

    “WINAMP, IT REALLY SUCKS THE LLAMA’S CORPORATE COCK!”

    Winamp was great back then, but now anything respecting my folder sorting and supporting Milkdrop works for me.

    AIMP for life. Sure, it stands on the shoulders of llamas, but it’s unbeatable. And it’s got a native Linux version now, too!

    I’m still using the latest winamp, a new winamp would be great but I’m never paying a subscription for music.
