"If you had a PC and you listened to MP3s in the late 90s, chances are you managed your playlists with Winamp. ....If you still want a copy of Winamp, now is the time to download it and to import those MP3s you downloaded from Napster back in 1999 into it."

So sad, I am proud to admit I have still been using it mainly because of all the cool plugins like QuickTunes and the dancing Santa visualizations lol

R.I.P. Winamp ![Rose | [Rose]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)
Veni, vidi, vici.

I ran an Internet radio station via Winamp. Shame to see them go.
Do Llamas make good glue?

That's sad...I still use Winamp! ...are they going to force me to use something else!?
I hope they decide to release the code and go full open source!

For some reason I am thinking it used to be open source then I think it changed when AOL got involved but I'm probably incorrect; too lazy to wiki it.
But I was thinking the same thing.

I sort of remember the same thing... but alas, I too am too lazy to confirm this.

Wow had no idea been using Winamp for years, guess I better update while I can!
|
|

If they happened to go open source with this... I would be all for supporting it!

I can't really see that happening though!

Sadly, I would tend to agree... I don't know how AOL got its dirty hands on Winamp anyway.

Free the llama!
They should release the source code into the wild.

Maybe we need to start the "free the llama" initiative...

Bummer, must have missed that

Have you tried Flipboard?

I think it consumes RSS feeds and displays them to you. I don't know if it produces any.

Interesting. Might help to resurrect some of the for-pay mags. Not that they were worth reading ever.
[edit]Well, back in the day, things like Byte were definitely worth paying for. Of course, that's really ancient history.[/edit]

Hhhhmm, I do remember that magazine! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_(magazine)[^]
You know what I used to read but was always hard for me to find was http://www.codemag.com/Magazine[^] looks like they are still around. (i think that was the magazine, maybe that was a C+ or C magazine too, can't remember )

For some reason I'm getting a free subscription, and I find it quite good actually. There's some decent and in depth articles there.
