GOM Media Player review
I tested this media player with many others out there and it's simply one of the best. I tested in on Microsoft Windows XP Professional and on Vista and no issues yet and I am using it for a couple of months. The best thing at this media player software is that is able to play .AVI files without any interruptions. If you used a lot of other media players you probably observed that sometimes it may slow down or interrupt. You will never experience such things with this media player. I know that GOM Player is the most popular media player in South Korea, however in this manner, sooner or later it will become one of the most popular media players in the world. It is very stable, very easy to install and it will play 99% of the well known movie formats. He is such a good media player that is even able to play .FLV files. How many media player are able to play so many formats ? This is definetely a must have program on your personal software collection and not because is a freeware software, because it's much better than a lot of similar shareware programs.
GOM Media Player additional notes
GOM Media Player is also called best media player for windows or best free media player. So, it's free and it is able to play most of the popular video formats like DAT, AVI, DivX, XviD, WMV, ASF, MPEG, etc. It is a great application and as a media player, when downloaded from well established and trusted locations ( downloading it from torrents can also contain viruses, Trojans ) should work just fine. It is good to know that you should have some protection on your system since malware files can easily be present ( such files are on circulation on the Internet especially on P2P networks ) on modified versions of well known programs. There are a lot of viruses attached to well known video formats like .AVI for example. Do not download any video files from the Internet and play them on your computer without using a good antivirus. There is always a small percent of getting your system compromised if you run any type of file without any form of protection. If you will search on the Internet for "GOM Media Player issues" you won't find big issues related to this software.
