Winamp has released its 10th anniversay edition which is now being groomed as a serious threat to iTunes. It can now organize and sync music to an iPod just like iTunes can but it also features loads of other new features including a remote mode that allows you to stream music and videos from a computer to any other computer including a Wii or cellphone which reportedly runs smoothly and is easy to use.

The Winamp media player app, used by 62 million people last month, will be 10 years old next month, having since become part of AOL when Justin Frankel sold Nullsoft in 1999, dipped in popularity when Apple released iTunes in 2001, and since become more popular than iTunes outside the United States, according to Matt Callaway and Sam Weber, the product and business directors for AOL's Winamp and Shoutcast products.

Winamp can play, organize, and sync your (unDRM-ed) music to an iPod just like iTunes can. But the new the 10th anniversary version has a bunch of other new tricks up its sleeve that could attract lots of Windows iTunes users:

- The Winamp Remote feature allows you to stream the music and videos on your home computer to any other computer, a Nintendo Wii, or a cellphone, simply by leaving your home computer on and logging in to winamp.com/remote (iTunes, on the other hand, only lets you stream to computers on your local nework). I demoed Winamp Remote on a Wii and found it ran smoothly, with an easy-to-learn interface.
