Radionomy.com buys winamp.com!

[Jay]

For all practical purposes Nullsoft is Winamp/SHOUTcast. These 2 properties were their most valuable assets. I doubt AOL has much interest in an empty website with abandoned school/personal projects from 10 years ago.

[Dr.Flay]

As long as Winamp will play the stations in their current catalogue, there is no problem.
Imagine seeing an extra section in the media library next to the shoutcast, or all in 1.

It should not matter what network or format the audio is in.
If Winamp gets a Radionomy plugin, then Radionomy get a huge boost in user-base.

Now the official statement seems to be out. Direct link is not accessible atm, but I found it on a few different news sites:

Now i hope that this dosent mean that winamp is gonna get bloated like Itunes is. I want my winamp as it is with my Shoutcast. I fine that they want to take it into the future. But when i install a new version i want to be able to de select all the stuff i dont want. so i can keep it clean an good like i do now

This is great news, just hope that we can all build on what is by far the best music software freely available to all.

My thx to radionomy.com for the takeover.
