i would say that vlc player is the best. it can play almost anything where all other media players fail. it has impressed me the most out of all other players

I am familiar with windows media player,real player,winamp.Out of these i think real player is most comfortable.

Myself, I like ZoomPlayer for vids. I like the intuitiveness of the interface. Plus the slew of options it gives u.

For Audio, It has to be MediaMonkey. having a bit over 10000 songs, MediaMonkey makes organizing, maintaining, finding songs a breeze.

In my opinion Real Player 10 is the best player. I am using it since one year. And Really I am enjoining to use it. It is the best available free media manager to organize all your music. And it can play all of the major formats used on the Web, including Real, Windows Media, QuickTime MPEG-4, and MP3. RealPlayer 10 for Linux, based on the open source Helix.

I like KMPLayer it is light and plays most media formats..Easy to use and doesnt take up much CPU space

I voted for VLC Media Player and it is best in list that you gave, but personally I love KMPlayer and its futures lot.

I used VLC and windows media player since for long time and these media players are great.
