Japanese text displays just fine, but you need to have the correct settings and correct files.

For non-english tags, it is recommended that you use MP4 or M4A files.

Here's a step-by-step of how to enable support.

1) Make sure your language is set to Japanese.

2) In Winamp preferences, you'll need to change your playlist font.

3) Use MP4/M4A files for best results.

and a big thanks to mrym for helping test mp4/unicode issues.
