The new Winamp app aims to combine music streaming services.

Winamp is coming back from the dead with a modern version and a new project from the same developers.

With a planned release in Q3 2023, WinAmp is expected to make a comeback as a competitor to Spotify. By subscribing to artists and giving users access to WinAmp's library, it aims to support artists.The library is small, and the interface resembles Spotify's.

The new Winamp, which is still under development, lacks even the most fundamental of its intended features, making it useless as of right now. It is unable to play music files or connect to any streaming services provided by third parties.

The evolving program, however, includes a reference to "Fanzone," a Patreon-like subscription-based music platform for independent artists. Many of the subscriptions only cost $1 per month to access a particular musician's music library.

When Winamp's development is complete, it should be a music player with the ability to combine the user's preferred music library, streaming services, and access an artist's music library. It is unknown whether the Llama Group's business model will be successful in assisting music creators because the desktop application is not in beta.
