Signs deals with AOL Europe and AOL Canada to put links in version 5.55 of the PC app.
The deal will see Fox Mobile Distribution, a unit of Fox Mobile Group, target a potential 73 million users globally across several European territories and Canada.
Winamp will also feature an integrated Jamba or Jamster-branded purchase page so users can buy the content they discover without leaving the Winamp media player.
Fox will ensure that its links are contextually integrated so when users click on a link to a particular artist or track they will be offered related content.
“Fox Mobile Distribution’s partnership with Winamp underscores our commitment to expanding our global distribution channels and highlights our contextual integration capabilities,” said Giovanni Montesanti, chief marketing officer for Fox Mobile Distribution.
“We are pleased to provide Winamp users with seamless discovery of relevant mobile content and we are sure they will be equally pleased to have this additional feature.”
