It all depends on what you want to use it for , i have several different media plays on my P C's
Here is a link that will give you some insight on media players >>>>
The Icon on your desktop is only a short cut to your media player , look in programs for other media players to see if you have any others , windows media player comes allready installed on windows operating systems, if you want others you will have to download and install them
