Which media player do you use?

[Jursa]

Zoom player for video, WMP for music and VLC for files that would require a crowbar to run.

 

[sunami88]

I also love VLC.

 

[orifice]

VLC player, it plays pretty much everything.

What this guy said!

 

[Galletea]

I use i-Tunes. It's convenient, and I like my i-Pod.

 

[irrelevantnugget]

Usually winamp.

 

[Syntax Error]

iTunes for music, VLC for pretty much everything else.

 

[AuntyEthel]

I used to only use Winamp, but now use iTunes cause I have an ipod (curse me! bloody program)

I use Media Player Classic for movies, cause it tends to play everything.

 

[Tjebbe]

rhythmbox (for music)

 

[bkd69]

WMP, primarily for ripping, and the builin media server. I usually listen to music on networked media players, netgear mp101, linksys wml 11b, or xbox+xbmc. If I'm listening to music on the pc, it's usually streaming off of youtube or mtv.com.

 

[Lukeydoodly]

Windows Media Player. I don't really see the point in changing.

 

[Frizzle]

Songbird is in beta. seems to be pretty cool and promising.

 

[ffxfriek]

itunes for my ipod...i couldnt live without my ipod life is too miserable without some good ol rock/heavy metal music......(im not depressed or weird its just true)...and windows media player for movies though i use my xbox with movies really.

 

[Ranooth]

First of all wheres the poll man!!

Secondly i have all three. WMP for my general music needs (always on my second screen), iTunes for my iPod and VLC for anything that i cant play/watch on the other two.

(note: as im writing this the input box is slowly growing, is this normal for chrome? or have i finally gone mad?)

 

[IridRadiant]

Media Player Classic for just about everything, except music. Fewer buttons, less hassle, faster load. I listen to my music genre lists on WMP for convenience sake.

 

[Fangface74]

Winamp for music (& iPod) for music

Media Player classic (plus latest codec pack) for video

 

[Nomad]

Ultraplayer for audio, VLC for video.

 

[notyouraveragejoe]

I use iTunes for my music. However for movies I use VLC or Media Player Classic

 

[ChromeAlchemist]

VLC player, it plays pretty much everything.

What does VLC stand for? My computer uses WMP and Quicktime (I hate thee Quicktime!) at the mo.

VLC: Video Lan Converter.

 

[naftali1]

VLC player, it plays pretty much everything.

This one. It'll play any type of video or audio file out there.

 

[Vek]

Really, here's all the supported features and formats of VLC by OS/platform. It's GNU/GPL, so it's free, and it works on pretty much any OS.

Thank you - that'll make a fine open-source alternative to my current media players for Windows.

Quite welcome. I've been using VLC for a few years now; I rip my music into .wav format, and atthe time I found VLC, Windows Media didn't support .wav (I think WMP 9 it was). Now I use .flac and .wav for all music, and VLC handles both.
