MEDIA PLAYER SOFTWARE DOWNLOAD PAGE

There are a variety of great Media Players you can download for free. I have found that Winamp's "Shoutcast" radio is the most extensive and easiest to use. I tunes has the best keyboard shortcuts. Real Player is essential because some websites (including some government sites) use it exclusively. Windows Media Player is always a good one to keep updated as well.

Winamp

Winamp has always been my favorite media player. Lots and lots of free shoutcast radio stations and free XM as well. It is a relatively small, yet organized program with tons of skins. It also has a host of configuration options for playback (advanced crossfading / bit rate adjust etc.) and library options as well. They also have a user forum where users post their own very useful plug ins and tweaks.

Media Monkey

Not as well known but a real gem for listening to music and keeping music folders organized. A well thought out and easy to use interface make this one a great, Windows Media Player and Itunes alternative.

ITunes

ITunes is a good solid media player that used to be only for Mac. It has the best and easiest keyboard shortcuts and lots of importing options not to mention podcasting and radio.

Windows Media Player

Windows Media Player is one of those must have players. There are certain elements of Windows that require it. Windows Media Player 10 was the first one to offer CD to MP3 importing. Version eleven looks and acts like Itunes more than ever. I like the way that this player organizes ripped CD's. It's a good program to keep updated.

Real Player

Real Player can be a bit tricky with its advertising but it is still a good one to have on your machine.
