It whips the llama’s ass

Streaming services are great and all but we all know and respect the OG

I ran Spotiamp for a while there. It was a Spotify integration with a Winamp frontend. No clue if it still works, but it scratched that itch for me. Your post is making me want to see if it still works.

downloaded a shitload of music from napster over the jester dorm ethernet connection and played through winamp. i think eventually they set a download limit. i had a shitload of burned cd's and i imagine some of the mp3's that i still listen to are from those downloads.

Those mp3 files degrade over time - you should get some new ones.

I remember doing a research spike at work, when I worked for a web filtering company, on how to block Limewire. Man, lemme tell y'all, that was one really nicely-designed protocol. We'd have had to redo the whole filtering engine to be able to even recognize it, let alone shut it down.

Torrent's even better. Also, has legit uses.

The guy who wrote WinAmp subsequently wrote Reaper, which is arguably to this day as good a piece of recording software one can get.  Plus, it was free forever, and now just has a nominal permanent license fee.  Total pro software, although a bit enigmatic in how it works.

Napster. Morpheus. Limewire. Kazaa. At one point I think I had over 5 gigs of MP3’s on our home PC. Brought over several times over with upgrades over the years. Now I’m just down to the ones I can’t stream.

I was discovering all kinds of new bands through MP3.com.

The visualizer was awesome. Pretty trippy.

Knew a couple folks who made custom visualizers for it. They were amazing.

I Still use Winamp regularly on my bedroom tv through a twenty year old self built media computer. 

5 gigs?

 

😆

Winamp may be my favorite program of all time
