Do I need to leave my PC on and connected to the Internet to use Winamp Remote?
To play and share your own music and videos on the go, you need to have your PC on and connected to the Internet and to have Winamp Remote running (when Winamp Remote is running and connected to the Internet, you will see the green ball with the yellow lightning bolt in your Windows system tray). However, even when your own PC is disconnected, you will be able to stream music and video friends have shared with you through Winamp Remote.
