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!

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

easy to use and download media player Downloadster.org is a great site that is useful if you need a media player upgrade. One of the best things about this site is that it is very easy to download the program and get started almost immediately. The instructions are simple and the memory space needed to download the program is comparable with other, less universal media players. This player is better than most others as it plays virtually any type of file that you need and allows you to edit and adjust your videos in any way that you please. These options can be really useful for home videographers and those with small business ventures as well. One drawback of this download is the other toolbars that are simply lumped into the download of the program. Although you can deselect the option to download it, many times I forget to do that when downloading a program and end up using valuable memory space that I don’t need to use. All in all, just deselect the optionary toolbar, if you don’t need it, and all will be well. Definitely a useful and wonderful program.

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.

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.
