PowerDVD
XP is clearly one of the finest DVD players available for Windows. It has
some great features that other software, like WinDVD, don�t even have. The
bunch of new features teamed-up with the handy remote control device make
PowerDVD XP the software of choice when it comes to flawlessly watch DVDs on
your computer. However, I have to say that the new version will be useful
only if you need one of the new audio decoding or playback features (or
hardware acceleration). In case you don�t need them, you can perfectly keep
using PowerDVD
