There are a whole heap of different audio formats but that’s really not the point. As Windows evolves and changes that the software running on it has to evolve with Windows.

So what's to be kept up to date with these newer players? The user interface? As several others have already pointed out, Winamp has an excellent user interface. New audio formats that Winamp can't play? Well, I've already asked that question. So what's the urgent imperative for being kept up to date with these players?Evan -----Original Message----- From: Dane Trethowan Sent: Thursday, October 11, 2018 5:14 PM To: [email protected]Subject: Re: [all-audio] Famous media player Winamp new version with Windows 10 support leaks onlineAnd here lies the point,, what new things we have in this discussion say VLC and Windows Media player are better than what you had as they’re being developed and deliberately being kept up to date, user feedback is being evaluated with regards to these and future products. So look at the subject line which talks about a new version for Winamp, where is it?On 12 Oct 2018, at 8:10 am, Evan Reese <[email protected]> wrote: You're right, some people don't like change.But there's another alternative to either changing all the time or staying behind. Change when what is new is significantly better than what you have now. Change just for the sake of change is pointless.Evan -----Original Message----- From: Dane Trethowan Sent: Thursday, October 11, 2018 5:05 PM To: [email protected]Subject: Re: [all-audio] Famous media player Winamp new version with Windows 10 support leaks onlineI’ve given this topic more thought and I think what it really boils down to is that people don’t like change regardless how good or bad something might be compared to another App, another method or whatever so here’s the point, take onboard change or stay behind and eventually stagnate.On 12 Oct 2018, at 12:43 am, Hamit Campos <[email protected]> wrote:Tom for those of us who have only kinda run across WinAmp.

It may be old, but it is highly functional. I am listening to online radio with it as I type this message. Braille slates are more than 80 years old but they are still used because they are useful. I also own and use a minidisc recorder. It is somewhat ancient, but it remains highly effective for spoken word recording.

The popular media player for Windows is expected to makeacomeback at some point. Winamp was launched by independent developersbackin 1997 and it grew quickly popular with over 3 million downloads in ashortspan of time. In a couple of years, Winamp became one of the mostdownloaded Windows applications. The app was sold to AOL in 1999 for$80 million but it later acquired by Radionomy in 2014. Radionomy, the currentdevelopers of famous Winamp promised that the app will receive a new update with several new features. A while ago, the developers published release notes of an update but no downloadable package was availableforusers to try out. Winamp developers promised major updates ever sinceit took over the company and we arestillwaiting for that day. It's an old and outdated app but it's still beingused by millions ofusers.A new version of Winamp, which was last developed on October 26, 2016,hasleaked online. Winamp 5.8 has been published by an unknown source andit's not from the official developers. It's also worth noting that VirusTotal scan generates two differentwarningsfor the app, so we are not including the link to unreleased Winamp updateinthis article. Winamp works fine on Windows 10 The Winamp 5.8 comes with several new features and improvements including support for Windows 8.1and Windows 10. It is, however, worth noting that public and stable version of the appworkssmoothly on Windows 10, but Winamp 5.8 is supposed to addresscompatibilityissues with Windows 10. As noted above, this release of Winamp comeswithseveral other improvements. For example, there's a dedicated settingthat lets youdisableWinamp's video support and the company has also fixed some bugs to improve the overall performance of the player. The current owner hasn't officially announced any updates for the app butasthe beta has just leaked out, there's a chance that an official statement will be released soon. It's also possible that the developers areinternallytesting a new and improved version of the app with better support forWindows 10. At this point, it's not yet known whether a new Winamp release is plannedornot. We are waiting for additional details from the developers and we********** Those of a positive and enquiring frame of mind will leavewill update this article if and when a statement is available.the rest of the halfwits in this world behind.( https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=emailclient&utm_term=icon ) Virus-free. www.avast.com ( https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=emailclient&utm_term=link ) ( #DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2 )
