Other media sources include Shoutcast Radio, Shoutcast TV, Winamp Music (which will apparently include streaming music and videos from AOL Music and streams/downloads from AOL Spinner, but was not working during our testing), AOL Videos, AOL Radio with XM, AOL Games and In2TV. You can subscribe to and manage podcasts in Winamp just as you can in iTunes - by subscribing through the program's podcast directory or manually adding feeds, and then specifying how often you want the podcasts updated. This was not the only instance of advertising within the program and it's a little annoying to see a Tampax ad where your R.E.M.

The search function is fast, and works just like iTunes - it starts searching for results as you type.Ī Now Playing view displays extended file information from the song's tag we expected to see a larger version of the album art there, too, but instead, Winamp displays an ad. When you select specific artists, their albums show up in the pane to the right select an album, and its songs appear in the pane below that.

The Local Media view gives you pretty much the same sort of list view as iTunes and Windows Media Player, but if you click on the Audio section, you get a more detailed, functional music interface with an iTunes-style navigation toolbar on the left, a Now Playing playlist at the top right, and the media library grouped by artist in the left-middle pane. Winamp offers a number of different views to help you find and play media. Then you're up and running with Winamp (although the Winamp Remote companion app might require a little fussing around - more on that later).

After installation, Winamp scans your folders to build its media library database, which can take quite a while depending on the size of your collection.

The Winamp application is easy to install, letting you choose file associations and components with the same degree of precision evident elsewhere in the program.
