Winamp, the legendary media player, will release its source code to the public on September 24, 2024. This decision marks a new era for the iconic software, inviting global collaboration and innovation.
Winamp aims to boost the player’s development by making its code open source. This move allows developers worldwide to contribute their ideas and expertise. Alexandre Saboundjian, CEO of Winamp, explained that this decision would delight millions of users and bring new innovations to the classic player.
The release will focus on the classic Windows version of Winamp, despite its availability on other platforms like Android and iOS. By opening the source code, Winamp hopes to harness the creativity and skills of its user base to keep the player relevant and up-to-date. The community can expect new features and enhancements while maintaining the classic feel of the player.
Developers interested in contributing can join the project on GitHub. This platform will facilitate collaboration and allow users to improve the player directly. Winamp remains the owner of the software and will decide on official updates and innovations.
This open-source initiative is a significant step in Winamp’s history. It encourages a global community to contribute to its evolution, ensuring that the player continues to thrive in the modern digital landscape.
