On your own website?

"Winamp, so easy to use no wonder it's..."

Nice llama silhouettes.

Raises an interesting question: What does the term #1 mean anyway? Is Winamp actually the most used .mp3 player, or is "#1" another ambiguous term advertisers throw around without any real definition?

it's like a shirt saying "#1 dad", just #1 to the kids

it seems strange that downloads are dropping enough to warrant advertising winamp on its own forums, where pretty much everyone has it.

I assume that it's a filler ad. ie. they don't have quite enough ads to fill their entire rotation, so they pad it with that. It's a lot nicer than "Your Ad Could Be Here!!".

It rocks anyway. Stop moaning!

Its been online for several weeks, and I think months. I have it saved on my site purely that I love that ad banner.

I wonder if WiMP isn't more used overall, though.

you'd be surprised how many people use kazaa's or morpheus's internal player

But theyre pretty much the most basic mp3 player around...About the only thing theyre good for is previewing downloads.
