First of all, I can’t answer that question as to what is more accessible 
because I’ve not played around with Media Players for Windows for quite some 
time.

I do use VLC for Windows and I’m able to access all the functions I need in 
that player very easily such as the transport functions, file functions and so 
on.

I have used Windows Media Player and I found it a more pleasurable experience 
to use than I thought it would be mainly because of the excellent amount of 
Shortcut keys and other goodies it has.

So as I’ve already said, claiming that Winamp is the best and most accessible 
player in the world is a very general statement indeed and I wouldn’t have to 
look too far to find people who would disagree, I know there’s a whole heap of 
people out there using Windows Media Player because I’ve spoken to quite a few 
who have given me tips on that software.

VLC users are a plenty and well as there being plenty of iTunes users and so on.
