Winamp Down for the Count

Posted by michael on from the elvis.mp3-has-left-the-building dept.

Artifex writes "BetaNews is reporting that the doors at Nullsoft have been closed: 'The last members of the original Winamp team have said goodbye to AOL and the door has all but shut on the Nullsoft era, BetaNews has learned. Only a few employees remain to prop up the once-ubiquitous digital audio player with minor updates, but no further improvements to Winamp are expected.'" The Register also has a story.

    The dupe google story - its gone, whats happened to any moderation - do ppl get their points back, does karma get restored etc.

    I think Michael's pulling of the dupe is unprecedented. At least when the other editors dupe, they don't throw a hissy fit and tear down the story. I was expecting Michael to just update the article with a small dupe note. Sadly, he'd rather take the fascist route and change history.
