I recently purchased a Dell 4600 and Comcast High Speed Internet. The computer and Internet service comes with a variety of music players download services.

If anyone happens to have both Dell and Comcast, I would like some ideas/advise to help me decide which are the best to use. Here is what I seem to have available from Dell and Comcast:

- Dell Jukebox
- Dell Music Match
- Dell Music Experience
- Sonic Record Now
- Comcast Rhapsody
- Windows Media Player
- Real Player

1. Which media player is the best to use for my cds. dvds. etc.?

2. Which music download service is recommended? Do any of the services charge per download and not charge a monthly subscription fee? (I know Rhapsody is $10 per month, plus 79 cents per song).

3. Has anyone seen a website that compares the various download services?

Thanks!

For a player--library manager--check out J. River Media Center. I've been using it for a couple of years with great satisfaction after using Winamp/WMP and a bunch of others.

As with all the players there is a learning curve.
