It's not that different from version 11 – except for some slight changes in design – but if, like me, you haven't used Windows Media Player for a while, you'll be surprised to find a full multimedia suite with which you can not only listen to your favorite bands, but also view pictures, watch videos, rip and burn CDs, sync with mobile devices and even buy music online. Windows Media Player 12 is the latest version of Microsoft's official media player, which comes bundled with Windows 7. Windows Media Player 12 plays more music and video than ever-including Flip Video and unprotected songs from your iTunes library!
Learn more about the Player based on the operating system that you have.ĭesigned by media lovers, for media lovers. It is the “heaviest” of these three but still a lot lighter than WMP or iTunes.Windows Media Player is available for the Windows, Windows Mobile, and Mac operating systems. Media Monkey has very powerful media management and excellent support for different file types. Again it is pretty lightweight but does not really do library management. I often use this as my default video player. VLC is a powerful, free media player with excellent support for both audio and video formats. It also has pretty good library management and lots of other features. WinAmp is “skinable” to provide a wide range of pretty interfaces and there are loads of plug-ins available for it - if you like to see pretty patterns dancing to the music, this is the one. Other options include WinAmp, VLC and Media Monkey (the “Gold” version of Media Monkey is commercial, non-free). If a really good audio player, fast to open and light on resources is the main thing, then you will probably love it. If a pretty interface is important to you, you won’t like Foobar2000 as it is very plain.
It’s also convenient if you use an iPod.įoobar2000 on the other hand is much lighter and leaner, will play just about any audio format, but has more rudimentary library management. Yes I think iTunes is resource-hungry bloat-ware, but it does have very extensive library management.
