MP3 software company Winamp released its latest update last month, its first in the last four years.
“This is the culmination of 4 years’ work,” the company announced, pointing that it came amid “two [development] teams, and a pandemic-induced hiatus period.”
Updates included a better integration on Windows 11, upgraded playlist code, streams playbacks, and more. Winamp anticipates adding more features in the future, including podcast and radio capabilities, now that this update has laid the groundwork.

“Although extensive internal testing has already been carried out, this is still marked as a Release Candidate build,” Winamp wrote. “All features need testing.”
AOL, Winamp’s former parent company, shut it down in 2013 at the height of other music streaming services, only to have Radionomy buy it in 2014.
