Orbiting234, i fail to see how this is any different than going and downloading each individual one then installing the ones you want. this codec pack saves time and effort for not having to remember what kind of codecs you need for what format, and negates the need to bookmark those individual sites too.

Absoulte junk. Only a complete moron would use these codec "packs." Makes a complete mess of your system. Just go download and install the individual codecs you need and avoid disasterous things like this altogether.

"Just messes up your registry database and fragments your drive." This is amongst the funniest things I've read on betanews. For that, 5 stars!

Awesome collection of codecs; it allows me to play just about any media file I download without a hitch. A+ and 5 Stars all around. Thanks to the authors for maintaining the project as well. :)
