Is there a 64 bit version of WinAmp
 
Note that this is a different question from "Are Windows Vista 64 bit and/or Windows 7 64 bit supported?". What I want to know is if the software in question is actually 64 bit software.

nope. Winamp is a 32-bit program and will most likely stay that way. it can be done but converting it to 64-bit kills the use of every plug-in ever created for the player which isn't good when a lot of plug-ins are no longer updated and wouldn't be able to be ported to the 64-bit version (there's hardly any plug-in developers as it is now). also there's no real benefit to an audio program to be 64-bit.
