Predecessors

• Webamp2x An impressive implementation from 2002(!). Doesn't seem to work/play in my modern browsers.

• Winamp em HTML5 e Javascript In 2010 a developer named Danilo posted one of his HTML5 experiments: "an audio player simulating good old Winamp". You will have to download the zip file.

• JuicyDrop An HTML5 implementation with less empasis on being true to the skin, but fully featured visualizations. @cggaurav is keeping it alive on GitHub

• Spotiamp The folks at Spotify reimplemented Winamp as a frontend for Spotify. Not in a browser, and only runs on Windows.
