Not sure if you remember Sonique. It was, I think, the first app (or at least MP3 player) that had non-rectangular shapes for it's skins:

I loved Sonique, but winamps consistent updates ended up winning me over. One huge love in the winamp side was when Tripx was released and made crazy visuals to go along with the music.


Oh for sure, I think Winamp just had staying power, and the various skins and visual plugins were awesome.

I totally miss that time period, it was just a great time to be into technology.


Oh wow. I totally forgot about Sonique. I guess after Winamp I blocked it out. It actually reminds me a bit of my first Rio Player.


Oh my god, I haven't thought about Sonique in decades!
