[jfall]

Is this true? I thought Winamp was fairly popular.

OMGWRONGFORUMBBQ!!!

In all seriousness, it sucks to read that. AOL's touch of death strikes again!

I hope it dies.

AOL killed them just like they kill everything else

I like Winamp.

There are better mp3 players.

 

[tfinch2]

reading that article reminds me of when there was only winamp and sonique, which were the only mp3 players people cared about. the sonique interface was AWESOME

I love Winamp (long live those MMD skins) and it just outright pisses me off that AoL has managed to screw over yet another innovative product: Time Warner, Netscape and now Winamp. The worst thing that has happened to the internet was AoL.

I kind of laugh to myself about those new lame AoL commercials about how AoL can make the internet better for their customers - best thing they can do is called Chapter 7.

I don't know which player I want to move to. Windows media player always seems to be too bulky and all of the wrong features.

OMFG this makes me mad :| :| :| :|

I hate AOL.

Winamp may not be the best audio player out there, but overall, i love it.


This suxors

i used winamp for a long time, but with winamp 5, the shuffle started pissing me off. recently switched to foobar. now only if somebody made a better interface for foobar.

Time Warner isn't a product and it's AOL

OH NOOOEES!11!1!!! TEH BLASPHEMAY!!!!111!!!11

Well yeah Time Warner was not a product, but look at what happened to the stock after the AoL/Time Warner merge. Even Time Warner dropped AoL from the 'official' name for the most part.

$100 million, idiots.

 

[TwiceOver]

Was never really a fan of WinAmp.

 

[helpme]

V3 killed winamp

 

[MithShrike]

I've just about always used Sonique. Sonique2 beta is not my fave though.

omg. I hope your face dies jk

I agree that there are better players, but I'll probably always use WinAmp... it meets my needs 100%. no other MP3 player comes close for me.
