So what's the deal...?
 

There's a lot of talk at the moment about Winamp 3 and what's going on with it right now. But in what way(s) will WA3 be different from 2? What's going to be better?

Too many to list!
 

Lol, i truely suggest you just dwl a beta ;)

For me the main change is the ability to skin it, being allowed to move the buttons where every the skinner wants, as well as interactive skins :D

Re: Too many to list!
 

Cool... I might. I don't usually use beta's due to their bugginess, and for me, winamp 2.73 is working nicely, so I'm looking along the lines of "If it aint broke, don't fix it". :)

That's always a good philosophy, but you can have your cake and eat too, in this case. Winamp3 installs (by default) to a seperate directory from Winamp2, and doesn't yet associate files with itself. So you would be safe downloading, installing, and playing with it. Keep in mind (as I'm sure you will), that being a beta, things will be broke sometimes, and features in 2 won't be there sometimes. Nevertheless, there's still a lot of fun stuff to play with and you shouldn't have TOO many problems with beta 2.

Thats what i love about the nullsoft guys...
as soon as they reach zen-like perfection (as in wa 2.78) they redefine perfection in winamp3.

Ommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

(^ Zen meditation, in case you didn't realise :p )

Winamp 2.78 Needs X, Y, Z!
Oh, hang on, that'd be Winamp 3! :D

Seriously, how long is Justin (and PP) planning to continue tweaking 2.xx? Anyone have any idea? I, personally, think they will stop as soon as 3.00 arrives (but then again, they might not ;)) I suppose if bugs appear, they might get fixed in spare time. Or maybe there'll be a WA2 Final Edition!

Who Knows!!

Since 2.7whateveritisnow is good for what i need it for right now, I think I'll wait 'til 3.0 is formally released. Would be like opening a christmas present on the 4th of December otherwise. ;)

That it would, but I dont think WA3 final will be out till way after December 25th, so ya might as well LoL.

In fact, I think WA3 Final won't be released until 25th December 2076 (more or less) :D

PD: It'll be worth :cool:

well, we may not get final at xmas. but beta 3 would be nice.

heres hoping.

You Americanos are plain crazy - XMas is the 24th of december, dumbass' :D

Well x-mas is still on the 25th and 26th of december. X-mas evening is on the 24th. :p :D

and there i was celebrating christmas in july...DOH :D

its that time in a boys life when.....oh wait. hmmm.. what was i talking about again??

In the words of James Bond, to Denise Richards ;) :
"I thought Christmas only comes once a year" :D

oh man!
