Walter Don't forget foobar2000 also. This is what I use for most of my playing. The downside is that you have to designate your own shortcut keys but this can be very easily done.
Another interesting option for really a very small fee is Mapler which is a small media player written especially for visually impaired persons in mind. The amount you pay is neglible if you compare it to what you get for it. Just some other options to consider.

Hi all. I'm toying with the idea of experimenting with various media players. Unfortunately not all are worth the trouble and still others are not accessible with JAWS. At this time I use both VLC witch does a good enough job and WMP which is fine but rather restrictive. I'm referring here to playback and neither ripping nor burning as I use Nero express for burning, and now and then Express burn. For ripping I use CDEX which I like. I used to use Reel player but when I got my PC reformatted I never did reinstall it. My question is how does Winamp compare with the other media players I've mentioned? I have never observed this player being used nor of course tried it. Is it accessible with JAWS 12 and or do you need scripts to access it's functions? How is the playback quality and response time. Sometimes the latest version isn't the best version so in your opinion, what version is the most successful? Finally, what other players would you recommend, free or otherwise. The important thing is ease of use, it is of little use if the sound quality is the best in the world but if you can't use it with a screen reader then it is a waste of time. All comments will be welcome and read. Walter.
