I think there'd still be enough people nostalgic about it to make a LinAmp out of the code, but only if it was under a real open source license.
What's a good alternative? I used to love playing around with winamp lol
Even to this day I still use Foobar2000. Even with Linux through WINE.
No, it's not open source, but it's trim and does the job better than other players.
