WinAMP Standard

WinAMP Standard is a multimedia player that has been a benchmark since 1997, when it was developed by Justin Frankel and Dmitry Boldyrev, its two original authors. Since then, it has gone through different phases and changed hands, but one thing has remained constant despite the passing of the years: it continues to offer one of the simplest and most effective ways to listen to music on your PC.

WinAMP Standard's interface is undoubtedly one of its greatest strengths. Users can leave the traditional interface, the same one that became so popular in the early 2000s, and still enjoy all the modern features almost as if no time has passed. That said, they can also customize the interface as they wish. Of course, you can still use all of the music player's traditional skins, including themes like Evangelion, Warcraft, or Lord of the Rings. But you can also make deeper changes to the interface, and you can even sync your Android device.

One aspect that many traditional WinAMP Standard users are unaware of is that the player not only supports a multitude of audio formats, but also video. With it, you can watch almost any movie you've downloaded to your PC. In addition, you'll find a handful of tools and specific controls for playing video files, which make it even easier to watch movies and series from your computer. As if all this were not enough, you have dozens of different plugins at your disposal, which you can install with a single click to add additional features.

WinAMP Standard is one of the most popular Windows music players ever for one simple reason: it works very well. Its interface is simple and fully customizable, supports more than 20 different formats, and offers a wide range of controls that let you customize your experience when listening to music.
