the in-Winamp view was controlled server-side so it was Winamp version independent, so going back to an older version will not help to get it back (and before someone suggests it, the 2.x / early 5.x view doesn't work either [which used a different method to what has now been removed].

as such, the view was removed due to a number of reasons which cannot be gone into and that's all that can be officially said on the matter.

and finally, the removal doesn't prevent the playing of those streams, it is purely the discover aspect which was removed, so v5.65 will still play those streams as long as you know / find the links to them.

Find my plug-ins at http://nunzioweb.com/daz/ and
yes i will still be developing plug-ins for Winamp.
