Nowadas we have better open source software but people have nostalgia for Winamp.

I mean, winamp had playlist, shuffle, and played music. What more do you want?

I can't listen to music without data collection, subscriptions and ADs

cue list, but winamp had that too. I like my cue list separate from my playlist.

depends on the mobile platform perhaps, vlc on iphone is garbage in my experience

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I know it’s a small backwards country but roughly 3 out of 5 people in the US do

Yeah but I always had weird playback bugs, like a hickup after a minute or two in many mp3s.

On two different PCs (like 5+ years apart).

I'd love to use winamp for music again, it was my goto player in I around 2000.

Edit: removed brainfart.

I haven't noticed anything weird in the past decade, not that I couldn't trace pretty easily, anyway.
