I use Real One Player and I know some of you out there hate it, OK which media player do you think I should use or which one do you all think is the best????

Personally, I switch back and forth between Windows Media Player and Winamp. Winamp can't play video, however. And, yes, I am one of those who can't stand Real Player.

I use JRiver's Media Jukebox. It's got a boatload of features and is really good if you've got tons of music.

I use Windows Media Player and Real Player One as well. Oh and Spinner, of course. Can't stand Winamp.

i use the windows media player, i really havent gotten to hip with music on the net, since the shutdown of napster. whoops did i say that. But as a music lover i would say find a media player that contents you and use it.

I like JRiver's Media Player, it does everything.
My favorite MP-3 player for sound quality (and skins) is Sonique.

but, being lazy, I use Winamp for mp-3's and WMP for video...

Anybody uses Spinner around here, for Internet Radio?
I started that recently, and I may never listen to FM radio ever again now.

Windows Media Player. I only use the real one player for internet radio at work.

coolplayer at work for mp3's. small and it has a *lovely* Sputnik skin

and jet audio at home for mp3's and videos. i love its ability to play everything, plus a video slideshow.

windows media player gets used for one off file playing since it is the default.

Paxx, for internet radio, try XMRadio.com. I like it better than any others I've looked at. Otherwise, I use WinAmp for MP3's and WMP for CD's (never did manage to get winamp to do cd's properly).

WinAmp, (not v3), for me is the best!


gwall , I have the same problem with CD's, but only with version 3, the previous versions are OK.

Winamp mainly for playing mp3's, though like Musicmatch Jukebox for burning to cd and creating mp3 files. Only use WMP for video. Its too slow and cumbersome to use otherwise. I have RealOne also, but don't really care for it.

I use StardockPlayer for all my media files. You wouldn't believe me if I said anything else
