Alternatives to WMP ?

Bill posted on Friday, March 23, 2007 10:18 AM

After upgrading to Vista WMP can't stream audio from any source. No one at
Microsoft I asked knows how to fix this problem.

My WMP-10 on my laptop (WindowsXP) streams perfectly. Unfortunately, Vista
won't allow uninstalling or downgrading WMP to previous versions.

I noticed that several people in this newsgroup have similar problems with
WMP-11.

What alternatives to WMP for streaming audio (e.g. internet radio) would you
recommend?

Thanks, Bill

winamp.com for audio and radio (see the channels for radio there are
hundreds of free radio stations)

and for video the best media player that plays almost anything with no
codecs needed  www.gomplayer.com

I dont use media player anymore.. media player 11 was a peice of ugly junk!

I'd recommend using open source, like http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/info.html.
