• Shoutcast?

    Shoutcast is still a thing? I figured that it died when Winamp did. Winamp was one of my favorite MP3 players. :(

    I know a bunch of sysops running shoutcast streams, myself included.

    As for Winamp, https://winamp.com - it's still around, and it still
    whips the llama's ass.

    That's awesome. Didn't they pull their services several years ago? I could have sworn that I tried to use it, and it was no longer supported or something of that nature.

    WinAMP did go away for a while, someone released a bogus version, and
    they came back with a new business model and mobile apps.

    i had the winamp mobile app in like 2011+. now i see they have some weird version and everyone hates it. it says the author is winamp sa.

    the winamp app i had for android looked like the winamp windows program.

    Same here, I use old version on desktop and new on IOS. It just broke Apple Car integration recently which is annoying!
