Summary
crapware hides good flac player
MatHuijb
Pros
Does the job
Easy to use
Extended functionality like building and using playlists
Cons
After installation you first have to get rid of annoying adware.
Afterwards you have to install your web browser again as all your favorites, incl. LastPass, have been removed by the adware.
Summary
After all the trouble I had after the installation I will continue using the player, but not wholeheartedly and I would NOT advocate it to new users.
Reported as Adware by AVG so I abandoned the install
Pros
Might be able to play FLAC music while stealing all your stuff
Cons
Is stealing all your stuff, or the software author is too dumb to talk to malware organizations to get his/her stuff 'registered'.
Summary
Try it if you want to run the risk...
Download if you enjoy bloat and malware
MarkOp556
Pros
None, didn't even make it far enough through the install.
Cons
Loads of sketchy bloatware and toolbar add-ons. Immediately after a reboot my Chrome browser was hijacked upon start up and would open around 15 random search tabs, slowing my laptop to a crawl.
Summary
I wasted so much time identifying and removing the malicious PUP files that this download installed. Stay away.
Requires ".net" junkware, too much bloatware
stitch6x6
Pros
Didn't get far enough to find any - the install never really worked.
Cons
Contained no fewer than 7 unwanted bloatware add-ons in the installation. Isn't it pathetic that Yahoo has to PAY people for set Yahoo as a default search? Then, after cvlicking "no" and "decline" to all the bloatware they tried to sneak in, the FLAC player refused to work in my Windows 7 system. It wants me to install a new ".net" framework, which would probably kill my poor 4 year old computer.
Summary
This download was a total waste of time.
Too many additional programs
HRHuffinpuff
Pros
The flac player works well. It's simple and easy to use.
Cons
There were about 7 additional program downloads added to this flac player. 3 were easy to uninstall but the rest were a real pain.
Summary
Good flac player but beware the extra programs.
Installs adware
hdelezen
Pros
seems to work ok as a flac player
Cons
Even though I did the custom install and made sure not to install any of the crap that came with it and declined all of their "offers" this still installed ShowPass on my computer.
The UI is not very user friendly
