After reading reviews online VLC seemed like a safe bet and i didn't realise at the ...  Read the complete review

Forget all the other media players this is the only one you will need and it's free! Unlike the other media players like quicktime, VLC plays everything. When you want to watch films or listen to music sometimes Quicktime doesn't support the format this will. All you need to do is download it from their website and it is ready to use. ...  Read the complete review

For most, the general media players will ...  Read the complete review
