Genre Search

I have not been able to do an 80's genre search for some time; it says there are none. Is this permanently down?

Thank you,

This forum is for users of the shoutcast server software. I just went to shoutcast.com and searched for 80s and it works (18 pages of results). If you are talking winamp, you need to make sure you have version 5.21 installed as the older versions are no longer compatable with the current media libarary.

If you are needing winamp support, we should move this message to the winamp support forum

Thank you; think I need to download the newer version of winamp.

I found something interesting too. if you are on shoutcast.com and select The 80s on the right hand drop down box nothing is listed. However is you type in '80s' you get tons of stations listed. It looks like the stations that play 80s put their genre at rock, pop, so they do not match up with what is in the dropdown box. Its their choice too.
