I built Winampfy — Spotify, but with the classic Winamp 2.x interface

I missed the days when a music player was a tiny window sitting in the corner of your desktop instead of a huge application taking over the screen.

So I built Winampfy.

It uses the classic Winamp 2.x interface, but actually plays music directly from Spotify.

Some of the things it can do:

  • Spotify search directly inside Winamp
  • Load and play Spotify playlists
  • Play/pause/seek/shuffle/repeat like you'd expect
  • Support classic .wsz Winamp skins
  • Browse and install 100,000+ skins from the Winamp Skin Museum
  • Runs on Windows, macOS and Linux
  • Spotify doesn't need to stay open after authentication

It's still an experimental project and requires Spotify Premium.

I'd especially love feedback from people who actually used Winamp back in the day.

What would you want to see added to make this feel even more like the original Winamp?
