Winamp ReDiscovery
I remember some years back, Winamp was my desktop audio player of choice. We made custom playlists for parties etc. The app was great. I had even made my own skin for it using a Mondrian Painting. At some point i just stopped using it. I’m not really sure why but newer version of Windows Media Player and now Itunes for my Ipod have taken over. Well, It was mentioned to me yesterday that the latest version of Winamp had alot of cool new features and associated plugins. One in particular that made the Ipod a readable device on Winamp. Hmmm Could I know longer be tied to one Computer with my Ipod? For any of you Ipod Users out there you know what I mean. Apple has your Ipod pretty locked down only allowing you to connect and move music to your pod from on computer. My big dilema with that is that i’d love to have my music on my home computer as well as my work computer. There are other apps that say you can do this but from what I have heard the success is not 100% For some reason this winamp solution seemed promising to me. SO I decided to give it a shot. And Damn! It worked. After Installing Winamp and the Ml_iPOD Plugin I was able to connect my Ipod to my work computer Play songs through winamp from my Ipod and move music from the Ipod to My computer. I am totally Stoaked about this. Some additional features with this new Winamp include the ability to watch Internet Tv and Of course the skins available for download and the colorschemes that already come with it. Tons of new features make this an awesome app. I will definatly use it at work primarily for moving stuff from my Ipod to my work computer. Will it once again become my default media player for my desktop? Who knows…
