well, Im glad you didn't. VLC is by far the best Vid player out there and only is getting better. I hate spam and the non-super users would sadly accidentally install it.

One nice thing about HN, is that you occasionally stumble across the people that write the software you use. Thanks for VLC. And thank you for turning Zugo down. Priorities are everything.

Only if you aren't watching files with, say, ordered chapters, or comments inside the SSA files.

Granted, that's most of the population, but there's a very particular dislike of VLC in the animu community, although some of the commonly-stated criticisms have since been fixed.

This is true.

And while, the SSA situation was catastrophic, this is now fixed, I believe (even comments).

The ordered and linked chapter in MKV is still not resolved... Patches are welcome.

What I don't understand is why Bing doesn't stop them...
