Earlier, there were no streaming services to play music or videos. All the computer users copied music albums from discs, flash drives, or downloaded MP3 files to listen to the songs using media players. At that time, Winamp was the most popular MP3 song player with retro skins. However, the latest version, 5.666 of the Winamp app, was released in 2013, and now the developers are bringing it back with a redesigned website.
