Tired of Windows Media Player (WMP), but using it because there's no good alternative? Well then try Media Player Classic. It's a third party, semi-open source player, that has played every file most of the video files I've tried, more than media player. Also it plays Quicktime and Real Media, assuming you have the respective codecs installed. Which means that you have to install the other programs anyway, but at least you get the features and ease of use of Media Player.
The keys and options pretty much mirror WMP, and it doesn't have any sneaky DRM or reporting back to Microsoft like WMP 9 does. Best of all it's a single 700k exe file! And it doesn't pretty much everything WMP does without extraneous stuff like skins and a media guide.

WTF?!
