Winamp fans suggest AOL make it open source

Last week, AOL announced the discontinuation of development and the closure of the Winamp player. Later there were rumors that he and SHOUTcast want to buy Microsoft , but fans of a media player with a 16-year history offer the best way out - open the source of the player and transfer them to the public for further development.

The campaign site “Save Winamp” is now open and a subscription to the petition for turning the player into an open source product is organized.

"The history of digital music began with Winamp," - written on the site. "Our goal is to convince Nullsoft to open source codes and we will further develop them."

“If AOL takes the open source path, the player will live forever, and will be in the hands of people who love it and use it every day.”

Now more than 23,000 people have joined the petition.
