It seems that my favorite and still current music app winamp is shutting down for good after 15 long years in the industry. It was once one of the must have apps as far as music is concerned. From the days of windows 98 I have used it. partly coz it was the only music app that would run like butter in my slow system. Sad to see that the latest release is the last one ever . * +

Dude, it went cr*ppy a long time ago anyway. Foobar2000 is the best for me. * +

what sets foobar2000 apart? Previously i loved winamp for its effects coz i could use em with movies. Audio enhancements and plugins on it were above WMP. Then KMplayer came along and it has been my go to video app. But winamp remains my music app of choice. I wonder how good Foobar2000 is. * +

winamp can do that too, although I'm yet to do podcasts with it, it should be able to subscribe and download podcasts. I tried foobar2000 today and I was greeted with this plain setting that the thought of me customizing it from such a bottom level had me uninstall it. I'll stick with the current winamp till I outgrow it or grow to like something else * +

Winamp has gone downhill ever since AOL bought it. Then again, I can say the same thing about YouTube since Google bought it. * +
