For those that want some additional details Brodie Robertson created a video on what was happening 3 weeks ago on how things were going into the lead up to this. Here's the link. It's 16 minutes long and kind of funny. It shows how mismanaged things were from the beginning

AIMP ^[Windows/Android]^ has been my Winamp replacement for ~15 years. I've never found a player that comes close to rivalling it.

P.S. I have no idea what the licence is for AIMP, I just know it's free and is excellent. You don't need Winamp.

To me, one of the best players for windows along with foobar2000

I've been using it on Android because of its seamlessly crossfade feature (i.e. the next music/replay gets faded in as the current music is approaching the end). I made some loops with Audacity and it's the only music player that manages to play them endlessly with no gaps.

What about jet audio? Is it FOSS? I can't find anything about that. I used it after Winamp started disappointing with it's media support.

What did they realize that they open sourced their product a decade too late for anyone to actually revive it?

People are saying that the repo contained third-party code, some of which was proprietary, some was GPL. That's two angles from which they could be sued very easily...

TIL Winamp was still active as a project

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
