Version: J. River Media Center 12.0.534
Pros: Looks nice, well featured, great for secure ripping.
Cons: Crashes frequently, and may occasionally corrupt media files. (Not often.)
Summary: Crashes at the worst possible time, such as during a rip or in the middle of a long tagging operation. I've seen it corrupt a few media files when this happened--and not just the tags. (This has only happened a few times though, and I was able to r... read more

"Would Need Two Promotions to Get to Be "Buggy Garbage""
Pros: Has a decent name, I guess. Though actually, it's generic and conflicts with a flavor of Windows. So I guess that knocks out all the "Pros".
Cons: Buggy.
Litters the system with files and registry entries all over the place (which remain after "uninstall").
No support.
Rudeness at every turn in the MC forums. Toe the line and put a smile on or be shouted down, belittled, and censored.Summary: Looks nice, but sucks. Avoid. read more

"The most advanced-innovative-best media player period"
Pros: Very good for large music collations. Very neat media server w/ zones. Play music throughout your home. I use this mostly for music though I'm not setup for TV, video yet. I actually like supporting a small innovator that runs circles around iTunes.
Cons: It isn't their fault. No support for music transfer to iPhone. iPod yes but not iPhone. There may be too much goodness (i.e., it organizes everything.) I only use for music but it also does TV, video, digital pictures, etc.
Summary: If you don't want to suffer from the corporate control that is pushed on you by iTunes, if you want an intelligent, well thought through and cleverly designed applications that allows you to organize, controll your digital media collection, this prog... read more
