It sounds like you are describing Winamp 2. As I recall (and the article seems to confirm) Winamp 3 added no useful features while killing stability and speed. I do remember liking winamp 5 (there was no 4) though.

Aye. It added deeper skinning support, but was slow, crash-prone and incompatible with everything built for winamp 2.

Winamp 5 was built on the Winamp 2 codebase with some Winamp 3 techs in (such as "modern skins")
