Woah! Never knew this is available for Windows too.

So I tried itunes and Spotify and they're utterly disgusting. Clementine seems to be the way to go but no Rainmeter support. back2winamp

You should try Foobar or Musicbee.

I have musicbee. The biggest issue with it is any file add to a playlist goes into my library too.
Foobar takes hours to set up, i've tried twice. It never looks as good on my pc as it does on deviantart,

Source: Microsoft In Talks To Buy Shoutcast And Winamp From AOL

AOL has declined to comment for this story, and we are still waiting to hear back from Microsoft with a response. From what we understand, the deal is not yet finalized, with AOL and Microsoft still working out the price. It could also be very wishful thinking from those intent on trying to save both services. Where would Winamp or Shoutcast fit into that mix? While I’m still trying to figure out what Microsoft would do with Winamp, Shoutcast has a platform that acts as a portal to over 50,000 radio stations. This could be one area that Microsoft might want to add to the Xbox Music platform, and which it currently lacks, to complement its Pandora-style personal radio feature.

Whoa!

It would be good if Microsoft managed to save Winamp

They just released an update (v5.66) today. Guess this is the last version.

5.66 was out the day the message about its closure was posted.

Ah yes, the date shows up as 21st on Filehippo. I noticed it today.
