    The most flexible media player I have even encountered. Plays almost any format and even damaged files. Interface could be a little prettier, but it makes up for it in compatibility and streaming.

    It's great to watch movie's, anime's and such, but not that great for music. I'ts allright, but not great (for music I mean). But I do recommend it:)

    If you have a media file, and your OS's default media player won't play it, i can bet VLC will. its a small footprint app with a HUGE amount of power. It will play almost anything, on anything, with fantastic cross platform support.
