The tech world got really excited the other day with the news that Winamp was supposedly returning with an all-new version that would solve all of our music-listening problems. And now the official Winamp 5.8 is available for download. Great, right?
If you want to download it for yourself, just head straight to winamp.com and grab yourself a copy. It’s even now llama-friendly for some reason.
What’s Going On With Winamp 5.8?
This new version is basically identical to the leaked beta from last month, which added Windows 10 compatibility, removed all the broken stuff, and got rid of all the Pro features, so it’s now freeware again. It’s a lot better than it was before, but it’s a bit buggy still.
If you’ve got a high-resolution / 4K monitor… Winamp is very, very broken. It’s hilariously bad.
If you’re using a modern skin, you can fix this by right-clicking on each window and choosing Window Settings -> Scaling -> 200% (or whatever scaling you prefer).
