    VLC will play almost anything! Winamp is just about as good!
    If you find a format that it can't be played on either one of them check for codecs.

    I actually use three separate players, most of which are commonly listed in threads like this.

    Ultimately, if you find that a player doesn't support something then there are likely numerous ways to make it support them (like WMP supporting Ogg Media).

    In truth, VLC can do almost no wrong when it comes to playing just about any video/music circulating out there... but I wouldn't call it "the best ever" or anything like that. Such a media player has yet to exist that automatically does everything a user (inexperienced or otherwise) would expect it to do.

    As far as recommendations veering from the normal fare goes:

    xine
    MPlayer.
