Windows Media Player is a media player used for playing audio and video files. Microsoft has also made available versions for other operating systems, including Pocket PC, Mac OS, and Solaris. The basic file formats are WMV (Windows Media video and audio), WMA (Windows Media audio), and ASF (audio structured file).

Windows Media Player replaced an earlier piece the of software, simply called Media Player, adding features beyond simple video and audio playback. These include the ability to copy music to a compact disc, synchronize content with a digital audio player (MP3 player), and buy music from one of several online music stores.
