Google is your best friend. With CCCP and CoreAVC, both are unbeatable. Microsoft trying to dominate those two? Sure. In couple of more years they will while we'll be moving forward to something newer. Microsoft is only good at making operating systems. Everything else is just failed products to their opposing competitions.

Keep reading...keep reading...come on tatsujin it will dawn on you eventually. (I know how to get Keygens and Cracks and all that other stuff genius. I even said "Provided I could easily get it for free through illegitimate means")
Microsoft has the potential to do so many great things considering the resources they have at their disposal. However, they need to adopt more of the methodology of newer companies like Google. They are hung up on the idea of catering to corporations, and end up making their products too official, rather than following Gates's original idea of bringing software to the masses. But that is digressing.

Oh okay. I thought you didn't know because from the way you sounded as if you were either a complete newb or just wanted to support your own argument. Regardless, what I've stated is pretty much the best way to view videos. No, sorry ... the only possible way to view your videos in the highest possible way.
From experience, Microsoft sucks at making things. They're even trying to compete with Flash! Are you fucking kidding me?! Just stick with making operating systems because by far that's the best thing they could make. Leave everything else to the world. We have 6 billion people and there's enough out there that will come up with something new.
Xtras:
For the moment, Tatsujin, you are correct.
MPC (although I will say WMP 12 has the potential to replace this) , CCCP and CoreAVC are currently the best ways to view anime (that is sanely encoded). I would be greatly surprised if this holds true 2-3 years from now though.
KMPlayer is an easy replacement as well, for the casual viewer who doesn't want to fiddle around with codecs and stuff. Not to mention it gives pretty detailed media info. Those icons that tell you the format of the files is pretty cool too...just saying.

Actually it really isn't for the casual user, the casual user would just want everything to run right off without clicking this and moving that,
VLC answers the needs of casual users.
But I'm definitely not the type of person who'll use VLC, there are other methods of previewing incomplete media files.

KMPlayer is dead. the author sold it to some big company and the said company is obviously having problems with the code since they took 9 months to release a maintenance update.
Get MediaInfo(and the MediaInfo Lite) if you need detailed information of your files.
