If you're a Vista user, you can't get rid of Windows Media Player--it's all part of the package. Luckily, the multimedia jukebox is an excellent tool for managing your music and videos--and even photos.

This music jukebox/subscription service/store combination does it all, but its playlist-centric interface can cause confusion.
