Every news of Winamp and its entities. Winamp has announced that it is opening up its source code to enable collaborative development of its legendary player for Windows.

Would be funny if Winamp gets a second life ~20 later.

      I like Audacious but it lacks the Winamp features of later builds. Went for Strawberry instead when I migrated to FOSS.

          Update:

          Found 2 new players today.

          Clementine (the player that Strawberry is forked from), it’s awesome. Thanks for the info to find this player.

          Also cmus, which is a console music-player, and basically looks like vim for audio files.

    It doesn’t say what license they are going to use, so it may not be open source. The wording is very weaselly.
