Hi, last post on this from me. this comes I believe from ninite.com but 
they link to wimamp.com so I doubt there will ever be any more updates. 
but if in doubt contact ninite.

Hi.

I think people aren't understanding what I'm asking.  I know Winamp will
keep working after AOL stops supporting it.  I have two things I'm wondering
about.

First, will it still be able to be retrieved from Ninite?  When I got the
updater for Winamp from Ninite, and I updated Winamp with it, it reported
that Winamp was being downloaded.  Where is this download coming from?  If
from the Ninite site, and there isn't any copyright issue with Winamp, then
there should be no problem getting it that way.  If Ninite is retrieving the
update from the Winamp site, then it won't work anymore.

Second, does AOL control the database Winamp uses for auto tagging?  If not,
then this feature should still work.  If AOL does control this database, and
they consider it a service for Winamp, this feature may not work after
December 20.

I hope this explains what I'm wondering about.  I got the Winamp installer,
so if I have to reformat this hard drive I still have a good copy to use to
install it.  We'll see what happens after December 20.

Have a great day, and don't work too hard.
