What is wrong with the piece of crap! I used to use winamp a long time ago. Now it just doesn't work.
I tried to play an avi. No. They're all greyed out.
I tried dragging an mp3 into it. No.
Tried dragging mp3 onto the dock icon. Looks like it's working but then nothing happens.
Tried Open File with the mp3 (cmd-L for some reason...) and it lets me pick the mp3 then nothing happens, it doesn't play it or show up on the playlist.
I give up.
On a related note, I saw some screenshots and the windows version now has a bloated, horrible UI, not at all how I remember it.
Here's how it looks for me on Windows XP. It's the classic Winamp skin, the one that has been there for ages.

Full version, when I turn on the playlist and equalizer. I turn equalizer on just for symmetry; I never actually use it because I'm sorta audiophile and Equalizer Never Helps.

That's probably one of the 'Modern' skins. The 'Classic' skins (from v2.x) still work the same. Windowshade mode is still there and one of my absolute favorite features (most modern skins can't even get this right, let alone other audio players). Each section is still a separate, movable window (player, playlist, equalizer, media library, etc).
