I'm too lazy to read all of that, but I think it said you can host the Winamp installer if you want.

You cannot host skins, though, unless you get the prior permission of the individual skin authors. Most of them (probably all of them) will be happy to let you host their skins, but some authors might get extremely pissed off if you take the skins without permission.

P.S. You could always just link to the download page and the skins section, and then you won't have to worry about any infringement.

Or download Virtual Lawyer 5.0. It will read the agreement for you and then sum it up for a large fee.

I'd be happy to put my skins up on your site as long as i was asked first.

I asked a similar question about whether i'd be able to link from my website to my individual skins in this thread.
