Players

This category lists software programs used to play MP3 files. They often have other features other that just the ability to play, such as making playlists, graphic equalizer, plugins (for both audio and graphic effects), and skins to name a few. Each player will have a different combination of these features so make sure you check out what they have before downloading.
