In January 2014, Radionomy (the company provides everyone from artist and celebrities to professional broadcasters and music lovers with the tools and infrastructure to create, broadcast, promote and monetize their own online radio stations completely free of charge) announced that it has acquired Winamp and SHOUTcast. This acquisition allowed them to reach a much larger audience and offer new experiences for users.
Unfortunately, Winamp is no longer being actively developed. Despite a few years(!) no new version has been released. There are also no signs of continuing the development of Winamp for specific platforms (but there is a Winamp 5.8 development version on Windows platform-however it is still far from stable release. The goal is to create a completely free edition, which requires removal or replacement of the licensed code).
Please, check out the WACUP (Winamp Community Update Project) project by Darren Owen aka DrO (former Nullsoft programmer). The project is currently under development and is being designed to work only with the patched Winamp 5.6.6.3516 release as a way to provide bug fixes for it as well as updates for existing features and most importantly new features for Winamp. The future of Winamp is there.
There is also very interesting project called Winamp2-js by Jordan Eldredge. Winamp is launched in a web browser and uses HTML5 and Javascript technology to work.
Winamp is available on Windows platform. The official distribution of Winamp includes my Official Polish Language Pack. You can download the latest multi-national version (Lite and Full) of Winamp installer (patched), official Winamp installer with built-in Polish Language Pack and Polish Language Pack (extended version) installer for Winamp and WACUP (with the possibility to install additional components).
The latest version of Winamp (by Nullsoft/AOL) was released on December 12, 2013. As a result of the change of Winamp ownership some components stopped working, some did not work properly. You can download installers that have been patched and have been made public.

Notes: Some features are works-in-progress, e.g. new in_mod and out_wasapi plugins. Sorry, no CD burning, autotag or cddb features yet. No multinational version with lang packs yet either (however you can still use langpacks).
Winamp 5.8 BETA installer is distributed only in english version. I prepared special version of Polish Language Pack that works with this version (and only with this version). To be able to use Polish Language Pack download below file and copy it to LANG subdirectory of Winamp root directory. Open Winamp preferences (Ctrl+P) and go to the 'Localization' section, where you can set Polish Language Pack as default Winamp Language Pack.
