To roj and aegis, while you certainly have a directly to your point of view, We hardly think winamp is actually dead as many nonetheless use winamp it including me personally. I llike winamp and always have, but I also have many others on my personal computer that I like just as well. I do agree i wish it was not taken over by AOL but still it is hardly dead. It works effectively and I have been fairly pleased with it generally.
No matter what any software maker does, a person is not going to be satisfied and make a issue from it. Not all people could be pleased all the time plus some on this forum cannot be pleased any time. I say, that if another are able to do better, then help them out, do not just use the community forum to make fun of these. Use it to be optimistic in your complaining after which perhaps they can correct it.
I have used Winamp for years and during that time have been generally pleased with some disenchantment inbetween, but that is life. Absolutely nothing is perfect and never come in computer software, simple while that.
