Winamp is dead, long live Winamp.

I just checked my archives, the oldest version I have filed away is 2.04 from 1998. Can anyone beat that? Also a bunch of old skins and visualizations. Back in the days of 28.8 baud modems, it was quicker to archive shit than just re-download when you needed it again. I can probably dump most of that old stuff... but hell... DASD space is cheap, as we used to say back then.

65k WInamp skins. Winamp remains beloved. I still use it.

I'd pay money for a Winamp that would run on my Google Hub screens, and pull mp3s from my networked drive.

I last looked into it heavily a year or two ago. My sense then was that google wanted you to use streaming services.

Which isn't the point. I want to play mp3s off my network drive. Very old functionality, which google won't allow on their devices.

I don't feel like this is on the level of wanting the return of 5.25" floppy disks. This is a very small software thing that they've chosen to not implement, in spite of >1 customers wanting it.

Can they charge you for it? No. Then they don't want you to have it.
