*www.neowin.net/images/news/logos/winamp.gifWinamp is an audio player that can handle audio CDs, MP3 audio files, and streaming audio broadcasts. It combines extensive functionality with an intuitive interface. Winamp features a playlist editor and a 10-band graphic equalizer with user-definable presets that can automatically load specific files. It also includes Windows Media Technology 4.0 input/output support and the industry-standard Fraunhofer MP3 decoder. This download no longer includes VIS/DSP plug-ins; you can download them separately.

Winamp 5.08d:
* Fixed playFile function in gen_ff.dll (Allows Modern skins to launch playback)
* Created new eMusic bundles
* Critical Security bug fixed in in_mp4.dll and enc_mp4.dll and libmp4v2.dll
* HTTP Seeking corrected for webservers that refuse to return Accept-Range
* Critical Security buffer overflow fixed in in_cdda.dll

Download: WinAMP 5.08d Full | Lite
