yeah but for me VLC is like winamp, its just a basic "play your music" and thats it, you cant have any fancy music enhancements like media player 11.
I agree its great for playing files that no other player will play though.

Ive got a X-fi soundcard a logitech 5.1 speakers so i think ive got the right to say which sounds best and its media player 11 by a long shot
