Edit: I've just noticed that there's an active QMMP project. That would be an even better option.
With that licensing, I think it might be better for anyone wanting to contribute time and effort to be looking to resurrect XMMS or XMMS2* instead. Heck, they even supported Winamp skins.
* There were apparently two unrelated projects called XMMS2. Take your pick.
Why resurrect XMMS when Audacious is an active fork?
TIL.
I still rock XMMS almost every day. It simply does the job I want it to do and it's so lightweight it might run on a toaster.
If you want something more modern, qmmp should be great.
On a fresh install, xmms (and Guake) are always the 1st things I install.
Still using the same skins from 20 years ago.
