Winamp and 13 other programs from childhood

They served us faithfully

Yesterday, November 21, it became known about the end of the development of a musical player under the Winamp brand owned by AOL. The news aroused the nostalgic memories of the computer programs of the 90s and the beginning of zero, about Netscape and Macromedia, resolution of the 800x600 screen and the musical design of Windows 95. We made a selection of programs, the development of which was suspended for one reason or another, as well as those that will probably be soon ceased to be stopped soon exist.
