BRUSSELS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:<\/p><\/a><\/a>

\nWinamp (Paris: ALWIN) (Brussels: ALWIN) today announced a landmark strategic partnership with Deezer that will power Winamp's own premium music subscription service, marking a major milestone in the development of the next generation of the iconic Winamp Player.<\/p>

\nScheduled for release in H1, 2027, the new Winamp Player will introduce a completely reimagined listening experience built around a simple ambition: to reinvent the music player for the streaming era.<\/p>

\nUnder the agreement, Deezer will provide its white-label music streaming technology and global music catalogue, enabling Winamp to launch its own premium subscription offering under the Winamp brand. The service will be fully integrated into the new Winamp Player and delivered as a native Winamp experience.<\/p>

\nUnlike traditional digital streaming platforms, the new Winamp Player will not be limited to music streaming. It will seamlessly combine premium streaming with users' local music libraries, internet radio stations, podcasts, personal cloud-based collections and other audio sources, while introducing a highly customizable interface, new social capabilities and innovative ways to discover, organize and enjoy music.<\/p>

\nWhile full details of the product will be revealed closer to launch, Winamp confirms that its subscription streaming service will deliver a fundamentally different experience from today's traditional digital streaming platforms, reimagining both the listening experience and the subscription model.<\/p>

\nMore than twenty-five years ago, Winamp transformed the way millions of people listened to digital music. Despite the tremendous evolution of streaming services over the past decade, Winamp believes the core concept of the music player has remained largely unchanged. The company now intends to challenge that status quo once again.<\/p>

\nThe partnership will also benefit Winamp's long-standing community. Following the launch of the new platform, the legendary Winamp desktop player, still actively used by more than 40 million users worldwide, will include Winamp's premium music subscription service, powered by Deezer's streaming technology.<\/p>

\n\"Winamp has always been about giving users the freedom to experience music their own way. Twenty-five years ago we changed the way people listened to digital music, and we believe the time has come to challenge the listening experience once again. This partnership with Deezer gives us access to world-class streaming technology and one of the richest music catalogues in the world, allowing us to focus on what matters most: building a unique Winamp product that brings together everything users want to listen to in one place.\"<\/i> - Alexandre Saboundjian, Chief Executive Officer, Winamp Group<\/b><\/p>

\n\"This partnership is much more than a technology agreement. It represents the coming together of two companies that share a passion for innovation in music. Deezer provides the streaming infrastructure; Winamp is creating a completely new product experience. Users won't simply discover another streaming service\u2014they will discover a new generation of the Winamp Player.\"<\/i> - Thierry Ascarez, Chief Business Officer, Winamp Group<\/i><\/b><\/p>

\n\u201cMuch like Deezer, Winamp was part of building the foundation for the future, as the music ecosystem entered a new era through digital transformation, and we\u2019re looking forward to contributing to the next phase of this iconic brand.\u201d<\/i> said Julien Delbourg, Chief Commercial Officer, Deezer.<\/b> \u201cOur role will be to support the vision of Winamp, and deliver a next generation music experience, through leading technology, a global music catalog, and two decades experience of bringing fans closer to their favorite artists.\u201d<\/i><\/p>

\nThe next-generation Winamp Player is expected to launch in the first semester of 2027, with additional product announcements and previews to be unveiled in the coming months.<\/p>
