Winamp to shutdown after 20th Dec 2013

[dashing.sujay]

Auto-Tagging is one of the best features in Winamp and helps to keep a large library organised...

For bollywood also?

For bollywood also?

Yes. I even tag Ilayaraja's '80s music with Gracenote. It seems support for Gracenote will continue even after Dec 15. Source: Winamp

BTW, Winamp v5.66 has been released on Nov 20.

Yup... It fills up all the ID3 tags, even some obscure ones like composer and all!!!

Whoa... Finally some good news!!! Woo Hoo!!!
Btw, I didn't know that most "Digitians" were oblivious of the Auto-Tagging feature!!!

Even more good news: Microsoft tipped for Winamp and Shoutcast acquisitions from AOL - SlashGear

For fun: Winamp, it really whips Ballmer's a**

 

[Anorion]

shoutcast too? as long as anyone buys it
pretty sure too many radio apps use shoutcast as the streamer, so hope this does not go down

 

[Desmond]

AFAIK, way too many people use Shoutcast for them to shut it down. But there have been rumors quite a long time back that they were going to shut it down. I remember people putting up petitions to prevent AOL from shutting down Shoutcast.

But please no Microsoft. Anyone but Microsoft and Apple. I would love it if Google were interested.

 

[lywyre]

I prefer it going open source.
If it is not going that way, better MS than no one. Atleast that will keep them alive and Winamp as default media player: why not?

I don't see any reason for Google to pick it up, though I would be very happy if that happens.

The year was 1998 and my first PC was assembled. Winamp was my first player. I was simply overwhelmed and filled with joy seeing all the games, softwares, wallpapers etc. Now nothing excites me much. Guess its just a part of becoming old

Winamp, musicmatch jukebox and jetaudio.. My alltime and most used music player. Sad to hear the news
