Winamp 5.0

Winamp 5.0 is out, with the tag-line "so fine, we skipped a number"

Gonna have a look now, apparently you have to pay 14.95 for the Pro version to be able to rip to mp3 and burn cds

u can control Winamp by WAP with this plug-in (apparently it's from vers 2 but i never spotted it until now), just install the plug-in, run winamp, then point your WAP browser to "(your IP):32000"

tis a neat idea, but i can see it getting messy when we all find out each other's IPs and start controlling Winamp for each other!

btw, it's called winamp 5 because 2 + 3 = 5

so they claim winamp 5.0 has got the speed and stability of 2.x and the functions and features of 3.0
