tried Mediamonkey.
It's definitely the best player out there for audio.
It has the most complete media library, it supports most winamp plugins, and especially adopts scripting.
if anyone, like me, isn't 100% happy with the player he's using, I would definitely advise to try out mediamonkey.

I just replaced Winamp (which after using one day I didn't like at all) with Mediamonkey and I agree it is the most best player for audio.

If anybody surely know it .... just inform me !! I will afford that at once.

It's obviously subjective.

What you think is good I may not. Is there are best?

I think the free ones are better than the paid ones that's all I say.

Once I thought I will use nero show time bundled in nero suite. It was just bad.

About the free players, every player have its own ups and downs. None of them are the undoubted best.

VLC for video because it will just play anything.. and it does it well.
Zune for music.. I love the UI

Anything ? Maybe .... in my machine vlc cant play real media video ... is it my bad luck then ?

KMPlayer also just plays as much as vlc plays .... moreover it provides a library like feature like the cover flow view of itunes (see below).... inference is pretty good than vlc, and nicely customizable. But it is not as popular as vlc.

K-Lite Codec Pack has media player classic inbuilt, and actually it plays the maximum number of media files (including RM)
