The fan said on the " rescue Winamp " website: "Winamp is the history of digital music" ; and among these fans, 9 programmers promised to improve Winamp if AOL announced the source code of the product. "Our goal is to convince Nullsoft (a subsidiary of AOL and a company that directly develops Winamp) to publish Winamp's source code and we will develop it in the way of an open source product."

On the other website, there are now more than 12,000 supporters to turn Winamp into open source software."If AOL publishes Winamp source code, the application will continue to be developed for fans who use it every day" - a message written on this website.
