- Winamp 2.9 reimplemented in HTML5 and JavaScript.
- Well, one of the best alternatives of Winamp is a slightly tweaked version of Winamp. In case you are unaware Winamp has made a comeback but under the umbrella of a different company. What started by Nullsoft in 1997 came to the hands of Radionomy in 2014 and now they have released a beta of Winamp with full compatibility on Windows 10, 8,.
Winamp is a media player for Microsoft Windows originally developed by Justin Frankel and Dmitry Boldyrev by their company Nullsoft, which they later sold to AOL in 1999 for $80 million. It was then acquired by Radionomy in 2014. Since version 2 it has been sold as freemium and supports extensibility with plug-ins and skins, and features music visualization, playlist and a media library.

FTP Archive Restrictions
The Official Cthugha FTP archive is maintained on a non-for-profit system with manyusers, so there are strict limits enforced. No more than a maximum of 25anonymous FTP connections are allowed at one time for the entire site (which includesother material besides Cthugha, amazingly enough). If you get an error attempting toaccess anything in 'ftp.afn.org' then chances are it's too busy. Youcan either wait a while and try again, or try a mirror site.
Thank you for your patience! :)

Most of these packages are compressed using either PKZIP 2.04g or a ZIP-compatibleprogram. All .ZIP archives have been integrity tested and the contents virus scanned. TheMacintosh packages are BinHexed StuffIt archives, and have also been integrity checked andvirus scanned. The Linux packages are TAR archives compressed with GNUZip (good ol' gzip)and have been integrity checked. The Java package is uncompressed but has beenhand-inspected and run to verify it contains no malicious or dangerous code.
Absolutely none of these programs are guaranteed bug-free in any way! Some of them arestill very much in development.
