Winamp, foobar2000
Winamp still exists? I thought it was resold twenty times to various shady entities.
Relaunched about a year ago.

The website is so unremittingly awful I didn't even spin up a Windows VM to try it. Massive, all bitmaps, almost no text, no actual info at all, mentions blockchain.

It has always existed. The final release from years ago still works, and whoever owns it now has been updating it under version 5.9 fairly recently. There is a "Winamp 6" on the way supposedly...
There’s a modernized fork of it: https://getwacup.com/

The official one is still around, but last I checked it had a crash bug in the media library plugin.
