There's no software in Linux like the current Winamp. If you want something almost similar, try Audacious, BUT the skined interface ONLY supports winamp 2.x skins. I came from a Winamp environment so I can say this, forget about skins and use the default GTK interface and you'll like it, I know I did :)

Audacious Install audacious is very similar to Winamp and it can even use some of the same skins.

Visually, Amarok has nothing in common with winamp, but it has all the functionality and more.

Try Tomahawk. It's a next generation music player. You can call it social music player. It has got great interface. It's feature rich. You will make it your default music player after testing it. It's my challenge. Tomahawk website

There is Rhythmbox or VLC.Rythmbox can also be used to sort your music as winamp does.VLC media player,It can also transcode and convert media files, and act as a streaming server over unicast or multicast and IPv4 or IPv6.but doesnt have a good sort function like rythmbox which can sort music like winamp does.
