Spinner.com is a media player company based in the United States. It was acquired by AOL on June 1, 1999.

AOL Radio can trace its roots to two companies it acquired on June 1, 1999, for $400 million, Spinner.com and Nullsoft.[1] Spinner.com was formerly known as TheDJ.com. Nullsoft was the maker of the popular Winamp and SHOUTcast products. Both new organizations operated out of the same office in San Francisco. The Spinner.com brand was retired in July 2003, but exists today as an AOL Music blog and a series of channels on AOL Radio.
