Pros
I don't even know if this program plays video. I never made it that far to find out. It dosen't tell you how to use its interface so you have to mouse over things just to figure it out and even then its not helpful.
Cons
After downloading and finally finding out how to import my video files to make a play list... as the import neared completion... I got tha big blue screen. Y'all know what that is right? Something told me not to download a prog with the word "destroy" in it's name... Why is the eq section shaped like it's giving me the middle finger? Maybe it was directed at me cause it caused my brand new laptop to crash- not once, but 2x. I deleted it immediately and haven't had a problem since. It makes me wonder if C/net even checks out the software they put on their site. I hope its not some kind of malicious prog. The one star that c/net made me give this prog is on them. I would not even give it that. You can try it if you want to, but my recommendation is: DON'T.
Summary
Simple, functional, BRAVO!

Pros
Just what I wanted, something that would play my music, and find my music files to do so. Rockin!
Cons
OK, If I have to think of something bad, it's that I had to look twice to get the files I wanted added - maybe harder for the lesser intuitives...lol! This prog is just right!
Summary
Excellent player!
