NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Seriously. I've repeatedly tried and failed to find anything as good as Winamp Pro and it's one of the very few bits of PC software I've ever paid for. So what now? Looks to me like that's another bit of software I'm going to be carrying on using long after it's died until it finally no longer runs because Microsoft broke some backwards compatibility with Windows 9.5 or something.

It looks like 5.66 is the last release, so download a copy now.

The next question. What are the alternatives and are they any good?
