Winamp 5.1

For all you old school MP3 collectors out there, I'm sure most of you remember Winamp or maybe even use Winamp. I remember getting hold of Winamp when I was in college and it was the best MP3 player ever (still is although I have to use MediaMonkey to sync songs to my iPod). I still use it at home to listen to music and even use it here at work. I was slightly disappointed when Nullsoft (thats who made Winamp way back when) was bought up by AOHell and then sorta dropped by the wayside after they completed 5.0. There have been numerous bug releases and stuff but it wasn't worth the upgrade. However they have released 5.1 and now they actually have live streaming audio from AOL XM radio which is really cool. I normally listen to ShoutCast stations at work but this adds a ton more stations for me to listen to. I might try and experiment with the iPod plugin for Winamp one of these days if they work out some of the bugs.

For those of you that are REALLY old school, you might remember a little app called WinPlay, now thats taking MP3's truely old school for those of you that downloaded music in '96 hahaha
