Now here is a total review of the new media player from the microsoft co-op called the "Zune Media Player"(actually designed for "ZUNE"(a product similar to itouch).
The main points I noticed on exploring this player is that it is more user friendly and looks awesome compared to other players.Though it doesn't have the visualizations option,you have the volume visualization at the bottom.The "now playing" screen of the player is simply superb-showing various album arts in your collection(library) and these album arts keep changing too.If you are connected to Internet the player gathers the information of the artist and plays it as a slide show behind your now playing(called as mixview by zune).
Coming to library options,as soon as you open zune you will be presented with the quick play screen having the history of the songs you played recently,newly added songs,pins(where you can pin favourite songs,albums,videos,etc.) and smart dj(which takes an artist name from you and makes a playlist of similar songs!!!!).The library which is so called as collection by zune is another beauty.It is very easy to organise.We can change the background of the collection window also.
Some things I didn't like in the library is that we can rate the songs in two ways only (like the song or don't like it!!!).The player doesn't support all video formats(it does only mp4 and wmv).Also the search requires pressing of enter button after typing in the given field unlike other players.
But again the search is pretty good it gives the search from your collection as well as Internet.It gives the entire information and albums done by the artist searched.
The transition effects and the volume visualization at the bottom must be appreciated.The music quality is fairly good comparative to that of windows media player.
At the end I sincerely advice all those having a good net to use this player you will love it for sure!!!!
I give all the credit for this review to "Chandra Harsha" who has shown me this player!!!!
