A steady stream of improvements, and there’s more already implemented in the nightly builds that’s not in this release.
Back in the day before iTunes was as popular as it is, and before music streaming services like Spotify, Winamp pretty much ruled the scene as being the de facto music player if you listened to MP3s. Things have of course changed greatly over the years, where Winamp is now a distant but fond memory.
However according to a report from TechCrunch, it seems that Winamp’s grand revival and return to glory is expected to take place in 2019. This is according to Alexandre Saboundjian, CEO of Radionomy, the company that had bought Winamp. He told the publication that we can expect to see a completely new version of Winamp come 2019 where he envisions it being the de facto platform that it once was.
According to Saboundjian, “There will be a completely new version next year, with the legacy of Winamp but a more complete listening experience. You can listen to the MP3s you may have at home, but also to the cloud, to podcasts, to streaming radio stations, to a playlist you perhaps have built. People want one single experience. I think Winamp is the perfect player to bring that to everybody. And we want people to have it on every device.”
Details of what Radionomy plans to do is still scarce, save for the fact that they are hoping to revive the software. To be fair, Winamp never really went away. The app was on the verge of being shut down for good before Radionomy bought them over. However the app hasn’t really been updated officially since, although it continues to work. Whether or not Winamp is still relevant in this day and age remains to be seen, but we should find out come 2019.

It’s made out of a black stone and has white highlights. It’s not just the headstone that’s shaped like an iPhone, complete with the home button, earphone speaker, volume buttons, and even the Apple logo at the back. It has an image of the deceased, 25-year old Rita Shameeva, in the screen area at the front.
The Mirror reports that this headstone was erected earlier this year to commemorate the passing of Shameeva who reportedly passed away in January 2016 due to unknown causes. Such headstones are obviously not a common choice so this was a unique site for people visiting the cemetery. It’s unclear where this headstone came from but it’s believed to have been sourced from a Siberian company that specializes in “death accessories.”
“I thought I was having hallucinations. How can an American smartphone suddenly appear at our cemetery? And such a big one?,” remarked one visitor to a local news outlet.

Famed director J.J. Abrams has confirmed that he’s expanding his media production company Bad Robot into games in partnership with Tencent, a tech conglomerate based in China. The company will be called Bad Robot Games and will extend its expertise in film to developers of both indie and AAA games.
“I’m a massive games fan, and increasingly envious of the amazing tools developers get to work with, and the worlds they get to play in,” Abrams said in a statement, adding that this unique co-development approach to game making will enable the company to focus more on what it does best and then become a “meaningful multiplier” to its developer partners.
Bad Robot’s visual artists, designers, and writers will work with developers to create games for PC, consoles, and mobile devices. Tencent’s role will likely be to provide funding and access in return for commercial rights to distribute the games.
No further details have been provided at this point in time so it’s unclear what’s going to be the first project of Bad Robot Games and which development partner will it work on its first title with.
It’s possible that we may get some of these days during E3 2018 next week.
