Winamp has launched their own forum for just this purpose and it’s great to see fans new and old being able to discuss both their excitement and, as to be expected at this early stage, some of their frustrations. No doubt, it will have the usual teething problems, but as has been shown before, it’s the fans and enthusiasts who have helped to push the software in the right direction when it comes to tweaks and apps.

Support for Windows Audio seems to be one of the key developments and this change allows for complete compatibility with Windows 10.

Although its Belgian owners, Radionomy, are yet to make a formal release statement. The new update, BETA version 5.8, seems to have found its way onto the internet, hinting that this could be a step towards this fan favourite being supported by Windows 10. This all looks set to change and could be the revival that Winamp truly deserves. It had appeared to lose its way for a while, as it was slow in coming forward with newer versions, which could be supported by more modern software. Winamp has remained a firm favourite for many tech geeks and music lovers alike.
