Windows Media Player and iTunes are the most popular media players available for home computing, but the VLC media player is one of the best media players and it's FREE. 

The VLC media player has a simple design, but the program is so powerful. 

This is one of the most advanced video players and is essential for anyone who plays or edits videos using a computer.

The U.I. (User Interface):

VLC media player looks like a small VCR panel,, there is a time-line track bar, a volume bar, navigation buttons and a button to toggle to the full-screen view. The program also has a menu bar featuring "Audio," "Video" and "Playback" options. 

Customized wallpapers can also be installed that allow the VLC player to change its look and feel.

Features:

The VLC Media Player, does exactly what it says, plays media files :)

While you'll use it mainly used for videos, the program plays almost any audio file as well as playlists of a mix of both (video and Audio). The program can also capture video on your desktop for tutorial videos or reviews for Softcity. The program also recognizes connected firewire devices and can stream live video streams through any firewire port on the computer.

THE main benefit of VLC is its ability to play almost all video files. For example, while downloading - legally - video files, most of the time you can't check whether you are dealing with a real or a fake file, so here is VLC, it will allow you to read any portion of the video file while downloading. 

Where to catch it?

The free program can be downloaded from VLC official website. The program is also adaptable to multiple computers, it's compatible with multiple operating systems and can be booted on any jump drive.

VLC media player can read the most popular formats as AVI, MPEG, MPEG4, FLV, MOV, WMV, AIFF, VOB,  OGG and more (It will be to long to list all formats) moreover it has great DVD playback abilities (read DVDs from any country).

To be tested and I'm sure it will be adopted ;)
