One of the best Codec Packages, this along with Quicktime for VCP is ideal for all users. I've not had any issues installing or using this package within the last year.

This one does well. I've used this one on another machine and it seemed fine--haven't found anything left out yet, although I've heard it is not quite as comprehensive as K-Lite which also works fine on my main PC. (both run Vista FYI)

I would say its better, smaller, and plays whatever you throw at it.
