     ------    The premier audio player for Windows 95 and NT    -------

Winamp provides all the features and performance you would expect in an 
audio player, at once (as opposed to other players which provide some of the 
features and performance).

Tips:
  New! Winamp 1.9+ has audio-file support in plug-in form. The two included
  plug-ins are for mp2/mp3 support (Plugins\in_mp3.dll) and mod/xm/it/s3m
  support (Plugins\in_mod.dll). You can get new plug-ins from www.winamp.com.

  New! Plug-Ins: Winamp 1.8+ now looks for plug-ins in Plugins\. So be sure
  to move all your plug-ins there and install new plug-ins in that location.
