What program do you use on your computer to listen to mp3s and video files? There is one program that I love so much because it has a small installation and I just love the skins. The player is called UltraPlayer, http://www.ultraplayer.com I am using the "Mojo" skin (reminds my of Austin Powers movies, haha). I also have Classic Media Player, Windows Media Play, DiVX, Real One Player, and Winamp installed, but I always seem to use UltraPlayer. It uses less memory and the size of the software is only 2 MB! It is so small over a dial up connection (I have dial up by the way). Here you see a screen shot of Ultra Player!
Let's discuss which programs we use and which ones you think are good:)

I've never heard of that program, but I have been using Ultraplayer, VLC, WMP, Real Audio or the other programs listed on here. There are so many listed.

Cool, I probably won't download it since I have so many audio programs already.

I use Winamp when I listen to music and VLC Media Player to watch videos. VLC Media Player is very good as it can play almost any file. I don't think it can play RM files, though. I have Windows Media Player installed as well but it refuses to work for me.

Oh, what is this VLC Media Player? I will have to look for it on download.com. Is it free to download? Well, I found the Windows Classic Media Player can play just about anything even Real Media Player's files. I just don't use it too much becuase I cannot play a bunch of songs at once and that is what I like to do. A big positive + for you :)

I use itunes for my music and windows media for my video. My arm is twisted behind my back to use Itunes because I have an Ipod but I wish I didn't have to use it. Itunes has some very interesting and useful features but it annoys me for some reason.
I tend to stray away from windows media player for music because it doesn't play .mp4 files. I'll have a look at that ultraplayer though, because I've never seen it before.

I don't like iTunes or Windows Media Player as well, but I do have them installed because sometimes I have the mp4 files or other files that ultraplayer cannot play. Have a nice day.

vlc media player for video. coz it can play all sorts of files, otherwise i use windows media player which is pretty good looking and user friendly.. especially the function of it which minimises it to the toolbar.... For managing my ipod i use iTunes..

Yea, I like VLC as well, but I wish a lot of them I could play a lot of files like in UltraPlayer.

I just used Windows media player. It's pretty simple to use and I like it.

Okay, I see, I usually use UltraPlayer for audio and a lot of video, but I will also use VLC, and many other players that people have been mentioning.
