Weird? It's Winamp lol



Who's gonna build TempleAmp?


Music does not sound good on a PC speaker.


There are DOS-based MOD and MP3 players that output to the PC speaker.


With the source code someone can port it to make Linamp.


There once was xmms


Qmmp is still being developed: https://qmmp.ylsoftware.com/


Before that it was called x11amp, and after that it's been succeeded by a fork that ended up being Audacious, apparently.


don't forget Macamp.


Remember that before Winamp, there was DOSamp! I used to use version 0.8. Playback was jerky on a 486DX2/66 but once I upgraded to a Pentium, it was smooth sailing.


Actually yeah I had forgotten about that alpha version awkwardly called “Winamp:Mac” because “MacAMP” was already taken by not-Nullsoft https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/winampmac https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/macamp-10-preview-edition

And the Android version which I used briefly around 2010 before getting into Subsonic/D-Sub https://forums.winamp.com/forum/winamp/winamp-for-android/29...


Yeah, if you want something similar for other systems, try x11amp.

(Yes I know it's not called that anymore and I'm showing my age).
