Winamp, the music player everyone had on the Windows 98 family computer, is set for a return. They're teasing a whole new app and are looking for beta testers.

That’s a lot of preamble to digest, but it seems that it’s going to become not just a media player anymore, but also an app where you can find online radio stations, podcasts and stream your music too. In fact, there’s even a section for ‘creators’, where artists and labels can get in touch with Winamp to get themselves featured on the new Winamp. Potentially, it’s going to be a media player still but with elements of streaming services baked in too.

For the Gen Z readers among you, Winamp first appeared back in 1997 and was at one time one of the most popular media player programs around for Windows. It came at a time when people were busy ripping their music CDs and surfing the high seas for MP3 files of their favourite songs.

If you’re interested in checking out this new Winamp, you can head over to their website for more information. There, you can also be a beta tester too by giving them your name and email, but that won’t give you instant access to their beta program. Instead, you’ll need to wait for the beta version to be ready before they send out a notice to you. However, the current version is also available to download for those of you unwilling to part with the classic Winamp you know and love.
