I am a big fan of VLC Media Player and I personally think that VLC Media Player is the best media player for all platform like Windows, Mac OS or Linux. Though we have a big list of media players on the web. But many of them are not as good as VLC Player. VLC plays everything it has no spyware, no ads, no user tracking but it can do media conversion and streaming. I like VLC Player most because of some cool features and some short tricks I use (I play youtube video using VLC, I use my webcam to record video using VLC).
Why VLC is best media Player
The first reason I would say, VLC Media Player is a FREE and open source cross-platform multimedia player. It is simple, fast and powerful media player cause it plays most of the multimedia files and various streaming protocols. VLC plays most of the codecs with no codec packs need. It also supports to play DVD, Audio CD, VCD any external drive's video/audio. The VLC player was released under VideoLAN Project on February 1, 2001. VLC Player was written using the programming language like C, C++, Objective-C using Qt. VLC players can be used on any Operating system like Windows, OS X, Linux, Android, BSD, Syllable, OS/2, Solaris, BeOS, QNX and iOS. The VLC players is available in 53 languages.
