Winamp.

There’s WACUP, but it’s not the same and you can’t run it natively on Linux.

What specifically do you like about Winamp? I miss the whacky skins and even more so the Milkdrop 2 visualization system. There are some hacky ways to get it to work for Foobar or AIMP. I haven’t checked what’s the case for Linux media players though.

Nothing too fancy, I like that it can load Fraunhoffer’s mp3PRO plugin 😂. Sadly, I converted most of my collection to mp3PRO back in the day and there’s just too many titles in there to redownload everything. So basically, I just need a player that runs natively on Linux and can load Winamp dll plugins, that’s it. Well… it would be nice if it replicated the classical Winamp look as well 😁.

Though I do agree, Milkdrop 2 was awesome 👍. It runs with Winamp in Wine though, so that’s not such a big deal.

Yeah, but I can’t load I/O plugins on it… my main point of concern.
