> I don't know anyone who actually uses Shoutcast anymore.

I don't know you, but I use a shoutcast based premium streaming service. Free tier has to use the official apps or the web. Winamp is still perfect for this; it loads quickly, my playlist has the couple of stations I want to listen to, etc. Foobar2000 works pretty well too, but llamas. VLC could work, but I don't think it starts as fast, and there are so many updates to install.




Fair enough! I haven't used it since I was a teenager to watch bootleg episodes of Love Hina and Aqua Teen Hunger Force (and other things that might appeal to a 15 year old boy), but I didn't mean to imply it was "dead" or anything.
