Shoutcast is still a thing? I figured that it died when Winamp did. Winamp was one of my favorite MP3 players. :(

I know a bunch of sysops running shoutcast streams, myself included.

As for Winamp, https://winamp.com - it's still around, and it still
whips the llama's ass.

That's awesome. Didn't they pull their services several years ago? I could have sworn that I tried to use it, and it was no longer supported or something of that nature.

WinAMP did go away for a while, someone released a bogus version, and
they came back with a new business model and mobile apps.

the winamp app i had for android looked like the winamp windows program.

Same here, I use old version on desktop and new on IOS. It just broke Apple Car integration recently which is annoying!
