# Winamp is back, with Deezer-powered streaming

**[The Next Web](https://daily.dev/sources/tnw)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Winamp and Deezer have announced a partnership to relaunch Winamp as a premium streaming music player. A next-generation Winamp Player is planned for the first half of 2027, combining Deezer's white-label streaming technology and licensed catalogue with Winamp's classic brand. The app aims to unify streaming tracks, local files, internet radio, podcasts, and cloud collections in one customisable interface. Winamp claims 40 million active users on its free desktop player, but faces skepticism given a crowded streaming market, Deezer's AI-generated content challenges, and Winamp's own troubled recent history of failed relaunches.
