    That isn’t ‘coming back’. Thats ‘we have the rights to the name,so let’s launch a new program with the same name to get free clout and easy money’.

    Jokes on them. I never stopped using Winamp. 5.8 baby. With some of that ooey gooey milkdrop goodness. Sooooo good.

    Digging up the bones of an ancient mp3 player (again) to try to wring more money out of it simply because you own the rights isn’t a “comeback”. This really doesn’t whip the llama’s ass. ☹️

    It’s coming back with a monthly subscription.

    All I want is a simple, nostalgic media player.

    It’s just this again.

    These guys seem to pop their heads up once a year. Last time they were putting NFT’s into Winamp. Just let it die.

    Can vibecode a winamp-clone in like 5 hours & the resulting app would never try to monetize me. Of course I don’t have to because Foobar -or rather Fooyin on Linux- is better than Winamp ever were…
