Winamp 12+

Before iTunes Music Store and the rise of subscription streaming radio, there were WinAMP and MacAMP music players and certain apps that could help you “obtain” music in very…dubious ways, you could say.

Fast-forward to today, and WinAMP is a shell of its former self. Nowhere near as easy to use, and worthless for DRM-protected music on your phone.

Might be worth it for the nostalgia or if you have a large collection of DRM-free music, but the built-in Music app is a better option.

+1 for the music speedup/slow down functionality.

Pretty much the exact same experience as others have mentioned here. Personally, I don't store any music locally. I'm an Apple Music subscriber, and prefer to stream all of my music from the cloud. Somehow, music is still taking up over eight gigs of space on my phone, but that's not relevant to this review. i've loved using Winamp on my computer for years, so was super excited to hear that it had come to iOS. I downloaded the app, though, and absolutely nothing happened. As others have described, when I tried to open the app, it hangs for about a minute, and then just closes. Since I'm blind, I thought that maybe it was a voiceover issue, but clearly, that is not the case. Hopefully, this app will get fixed someday, as I would love to use it, but now, it's pretty much pointless.

The desktop app allows you to add URLs of your own. VLC also also for URL streaming. This seems like a big oversight. The “Hotmix” options are lame and I’d like to connect to preexisting streams, not these goofy curated options.
