> For the first time in its near 30-year history, Winamp will be offering a premium subscription. Should the Deezer partnership prove successful, it'll be quite the rebound for a service that AOL had planned to shut down in 2013 before selling it off to Radionomy.
I'm lost here, since when is it that Winamp was a "service"?
But hey, enough pessimism. Curious to see what the combination of
> a subscription model that's "fundamentally different" from today's streaming services
and
> player with its own premium subscription service, with Deezer providing the white-label streaming technology and licensed catalog
will be.
Oh, and hijacking copy & paste the way Engadget does is so damn annoying, what a junk site (it appends a link to the article when you copy text from the article). Not a good fit for a site owned by a company calling itself "Static Media"!
