This thing went into beta like 2 years ago, didn't it? I think AOL bought it, and killed it just like they killed Netscape. Another vaporware product :)

I've been using beta 3 for the last month or so, but I liked 2.x better for some reason

Winamp v2.72 here

I install the Lite version and say I have no internet connection and it never asks me to update it. I like it :)

Ver. 2.xx was a lot more stable and mature then ver. 3 (obviously). 3.xx takes too long to load and not as clean as 2.xx. They should fix this in time.

I concur, WA3 was junk... Hopefully it never comes out - all it'll do is sap resources with useless junk.... Hmm, now that I think about it, that sounds an awful lot like Windows XP!
