I’m curious, why does this require OpenSSL in order to compile? I’m not aware of any audio formats that use encryption, but I could be wrong.
My first thought was for connecting to https streams, but I don’t remember Winamp having this capability. “Back in the day,” I used Winamp for playing local audio and RealPlayer for what little streaming was available.

I don’t know about https specifically but winamp could handle all kinds of streams.
Looks like curl and opus want it https://github.com/search?q=repo%3AWinampDesktop%2Fwinamp+openssl+language%3AC&type=code
Couldn’t you look at the code and see what ssl calls it’s making?
Maybe to connect to their update servers and validate updated binaries or something like that? Not sure if it supported calling home to get updates.
i remember listening to icecast radio on winamp back in the day
