Hey all,

Okay I found some download sites mention latest update of Winamp to be version 5.63. See Filehippo.

But when I tried to download the update from Winamp site, I found they have latest version 5.62, which I already have installed.

The question is if Winamp is not offering 5.63 on their own website, where the hell these download sites are getting version 5.63 from?

And yes I have checked for 2 days now.

Thanks :)

Thanks noknojon.
My original question was - why version 5.63 is not available on http://www.winamp.com/media-player/all
While it is still present on many other download sites.

Why it's not on the download page? No clue. Somebody asleep at the switch for Winamp? :whistle:

The only result I can get is a Redirect to a mirror site - nullsoft.com -

Are you sure they direct downloadload from their own site ?
Also did you note that Only a Clean install works on this version - It is not an updated version -

Many companies (example MBAM) always use mirror sites for program downloads -
