Winamp till date remains my favorite music jukebox software. Its simplicity and speed put other music players out there to shame. Winamp as a part of its 10th Anniversary celebrations will release Winamp 5.5 on 10th September 2007 at exactly 10:10:10 AM. Winamp 5.5 has been in the works for over a year now and is one of the biggest upgrades the player will see. For those users who have been waiting for the previews of the upcoming Winamp, here are a few screenshots :

Some of the New features that we would see in Winamp 5.5 Are :

• Winamp Bento (SingleUI Skin)
• Winamp Remote lets you access your media from anywhere via the web
• Unified File Editor, with Album Art tab (for mp3, m4a, wma, ogg, flac)

• Album Art window for Winamp Modern skin
• Global ‘playback thread priority’ setting for decoders
• Option to not show playlist item number in classic songticker
• Version History drop-down selector and Search (in About dialog)
• Multi-channel mp3surround support
