Winamp 5.09.4 released (July 19, 2005) - review and link

Didn't those fools at Nullsoft just release 5.09? By the time I download this, they will have released 5.09.1½ so no use downloading this.

ur rite druva. last week or so they've released Ver 5.09 and now 5.09.1. may b they are trying to release new version as MS releases new updates every month 2nd tuesday.

imagine a person on dialup- for upgrading a few problems one has to waste lots of time and money.
i dont thing its worth it.
anyways -my personal opinion winamp 5 and 5.9 wouldnt make a hell of a difference to the everyday user who just plays song in winamp

I m Still using my winamp 2.79 past three years coz frankly i only listen to mp3s and winamp2.79 is well enuff to manage my playlists and plays the songs just as well

Actually everyone who uses Winamp only for playing music should use Winamp 2. Winamp 5 (especially if you use the modern skin), is a lot more resource hungry.

I am tired of downloading small minor updates of winamp again and again. you download 5.09 and check it's website next day the version will be 5.091 what the hell.

I guess that's the life cycle of a modern day software.................there is no cycle..........
Thnx for the link though.

yah thanks 4 the link i forgot!

Hi Guys!

Hehe. I dont really give a damn about the list but then ppl who have winamp 5.09 must have noticed that it takes a lot of time to load!! They have fixed this in 5.091. I checked it myself. Loads pretty fast! So this upgrade is worth it!

Ya ur right version 5.09 hanged a lot on my machine, there was something wrong with the winamp equaliser but after upgrading to 5.091 my problem was solved.

My Question:
Does winamp FULL has all the features of PRO version or something else, bcos the size of both are almost same.

Hi gaurav!

See actually the PRO version will behave as the FULL version untill u register it (costs money). The pro version has some extra features such as faster CD ripping and burning. But what the hell! Who uses winamp to rip or burn CD's anyway??

U'r rigth no body is that much stupid to waster his mind trying to find the burner or recorder .Not for novice user BAD IDEA.

NULLSOFT has released Winamp 5.09.2. So, my post has been updated. Check it out.

Thank god i didnt d/l 5.09, now i m gonna d/l any major update only like 5.1 or 6

Good that i waited before installing this version. Was looking at this topic for any problems that might be associated with the newer version. Any glitches problems with the newer version guys!!!

Hi rohanbee!

As i said, all the problems have been fixed in the latest version v5.09.2! So u can go ahead and try it out!

By the way, i personally feel its a good sign that a software is updated regularly. I think it tells us that the software isn't dead!

I agree with you. In my opinion either use the updated version of a software for advanced security reason or don't use the software when you are unable to update it. So, if you want to keep yourself secure, it would be well advised to keep yourself updated.

As NULLSOFT has released Winamp 5.09.4, I have updated my post.

first winamp's credit scenes in 5.04 or so said that its the final

Now they say that the saga comntinues, after all why cant a small software be efficient enough for playing mp3s??????
