Hey guys,
Well I was looking through my hard disk.
In the softwares section I saw I had winamp 1,2,3,5.
So I decided to download the winamp4.
But it was nowhere on the net.
Also I never heard about the version.
After 3 came 5.
Where the hell did winamp 4 go?
Can anybody answer please??????

Winamp was fine upto 2.9x, after that came v3 which was not simply a continuation of 2.9x but incorporated some new techniques that was buggy and didn't work out too well.

For reasons best known to themselves, Nullsoft decided to jump to v5 and skipped 4. My guess is that they wanted to avoid confusion or wanted to create a strong impression that v5 has no connection with v3.
