   I saw the announcement last year that AOL was going to stop developing WinAmp   
   and take the files down - I was disappointed because I've been using WinAmp   
   since around 1997 or 1998 and still use it occasioanlly.  I didn't realize   
   WinAmp had been bought by a Belgian company.  At least someone still owns it,   
   and hoepfully they'll continue to do development work on it.  It has a   
   somewhat annoying bug right now where it stays in memory even after you close   
   the window, so you have to go to the task manager and kill it.  After   
   searching online, it seems that happens for many WinAmp users..
