Finally, a VLC player that works!! My older brother (computer geek) usually makes sure the home computer is updated and has the latest software. For the most part I wouldn’t bother with updating software, until he went to college. Then I was on my own. I survived for a while, until the version of VLC Media Player I had a bug, and it constantly crashed during playback. My brother wasn’t around anymore; it was time to grow up. The first few sites I tried that claimed to have the “latest VLC player” turned out to be a bust. Then I stumbled upon downloadster.org. Clean site, no annoying advertisements, good overview on the software, and very helpful reviews. Plus, they regularly update their software, and illuminate important changes to new versions. Suffice to say, my current version of VLC Media Player works smooth, and I’m able to play any format of music. Kudos downloadster.org!

Downloadster.org even worked with my smart phone yes! Downloadster.org immediately caught my eye seeing as their homepage featured software programs and products that I use very frequently. VLC player is a great media player for video or audio. Personally I downloaded it to use it in assisting me with my transcriptions as its one of the few who let you control the speed of what you are hearing just by pressing the plus and minus keys. What was really useful for me was being able to install the VLC media player on my phone because I was traveling and missing a lot of my favorite TV shows and my great smart phone just wouldn’t play them, until I installed VLC player and I haven’t had any problems since. The other thing I find useful from downloadster.org was just an optional toolbar, which I usually find to be a really annoying add on, but this one is practical and neat in its appearance. This site was safe for downloading something I really needed but didn’t want to have to shell out money for so THANK YOU for this free download of my most reliable media player!

Media player, nice product but needs a different layout To start, the layout of downloadster.org is okay. When I stumble on websites like this, I typically write them off as some sort of scam. There seems to be too much going on and I don’t usually like to waste my time. Because of this, I would recommend simplifying the downloadster.org website. It is a nice looking website, but I can see people like me being turned away when they’re used to scams for “free products” which really just turn out to be some sort of virus. This product is only for windows, so that imposes limitations. I would try to open up the product, as a lot of people my age are working on macs. However, the product itself is a very nice one. If we’re going off of that, I have no complaints. I know I have had issues in the past with wrong file types that will not play on my computer, and this product can help. It is able to play many different types of files, which is a great addition. It would be very nice for downloading a movie that may not be the typical file, and things of that sort.

Don't believe all the fake reviews If you need something, go to the original website. Stay away from shady sites that show up with some fake ad for something you googled. Not to mention, they are bundling free, open-source applications with ad-ware. You really can't get anymore shady than this place. STAY AWAY

Bundled with adware Hash (authentification) codes for VLC don't match up with the real site; downloaded from this site out of curiosity and had the headache of removing all the other annoying programs that came with it.
