"W
Works better than WinMedia and Real Player for me."Pros: My DVD's play properly with this software. Windows media and Real player both failed to synchronise sound and vision. I think it mat be just a basic player but if that is all you need then the v.fast download and automatic installation make this attractive(to a normal non-techy like me).

"maybe not the best, but show me something better"
Pros: i'm a recent convert to Mac. i have a lot of wmv files. if there is anything better out there, then show it to me. as far as i'm concerned it works great. although it doesnt play wmvHD videos very well, i would say overall this is an excellent program for anyone who has recently switched to Mac!
