Finally, WMPlayer 12 released on October 22, 2009. This is the latest version of the popular player. In the end, Windows Media Player 12 is compelling in its integrated simplicity — like a single control that replaces the separate remotes for your VCR, cable box, and TV set — and sets a new interface paradigm that will undeniably have an impact on all future streaming players. WMP’s only downsides are an occasional lack of feature depth and the need for comprehensive support of RealNetworks and Apple formats.

Perhaps the biggest push for the company comes with its new Windows Media player, which has turned into a full-fledged jukebox player, much like Groove Music. It supports both streaming and downloadable music unlike Real’s software which uses two separate players. Microsoft recently released new version Groove Music is a move into incorporating both streaming and downloading, however.

Windows Media Player 12 is not supported and no longer available for download from official Microsoft web site. On the other hand, you could find and download the complete releases Windows Media Player 12 below on this page.
