The last members of the original Winamp team have said goodbye to AOL and the door has all but shut on the Nullsoft era, BetaNews has learned.
Only a few employees remain to prop up the once-ubiquitous digital audio player with minor updates, but no further improvements to Winamp are expected.

I was a strong believer in 2.9x until one day I couldn't find it's installation anywhere on the net.. I then installed the 5.x version and it works just fine :) |
