Op het forum van Winamp is de eerste beta van de gelijknamige player uit de 5-serie gepost. Dit is de eerste versie van de langverwachte serie die duidelijke veranderingen met zich mee brengt zoals een verbeterde skin-engine. In de toekomst is het mogelijk om Winamp te registreren en in het bezit te komen van de Pro-versie, maar deze feature is op dit moment nog niet geïmplementeerd. De volgende veranderingen zijn van toepassing vanaf 2.95:

. Ze hebben echt goed werk aan de GUI gedaan. Vroeger waren opties altijd zoeken, maar met de menu's is dit nu eindelijk voorbij. Daarbij zijn ze wel uit te schakelen voor mensen die ze niet willen hebben. Ook de ingebakken VIS/video in de skin vind ik echt goed gedaan. Nu past alles tenminste in elkaar en lijkt het niet zo'n samengeplakt geheel van kleine dingen.:strip_exif()/u/30814/newgot.gif?f=community){kind=small}
