WACUP is an updated version of WinAMP 5.666 or smth, for m$win ofc. Alternatively and systems other than m$win there’s audacious which is a fork of XMMS/BMP and can be built with either GTK+2 or Qt5.
WinAMP 2.95 was the best version but it doesn’t support FLAC…
Most people have their favorite old version of Winamp that they run.
I used Winamp for a very long time myself, but ended up giving it up when I gave up Windows. (yes, I know you can run it under Wine, but I also have Qmmp now)
Right, yeah, i cant run it then either. I just assumed it would have a linux build. I wouldn’t really want to use it with wine, I prefer native programs
Love the motto. I did look around a bit and it seems that the was some controversy a few years ago with them. Some headlines suggesting development finished. Are you just using a couple of years old build and it’s not breaking, or are there actual updates still?
Just an old version. It doesn’t auto update and I think the only versions actively developed today are the iOS and Android apps. Not even sure where you download the desktop version on their website since it’s vastly different now.
I thought Winamp was no more? Used to love it way back.

It literally never went away. People just don’t usually listen to files on their own device anymore. But it’s been whipping llama ass this whole time.

fwiw I use Audacious which has Winamp skin support, so looks the same.
