CoralPlayer is a scam. If you go to their web site (which you really have to search for to find a way to get to the page) you will find a link that says that you can "purchase" CoralPlayer for only 95 cents. But if you read the rest of the site you will find that what you are "purchasing" is a 3 day trial. After that you are charged $19.95/month. By "purchasing" it you automatically agree to be billed after 3 days and then monthly after that. It is ludicrous that you would rent a piece of software to do something so simple as play a video and the per month price is what you would expect to pay for the average video player which you then own forever. I have seen reports of some videos claiming to require CoralPlayer to play. Apparently your ordinary player can play the part that says you need CoralPlayer to play the video. What this means is that the makers of CoralPlayer have invented a market for their software. A small portion of the file will play with any player. The rest of the file is presumably in a proprietary format which they created for the sole purpose of distributing videos which you then have to pay them monthly to view. Complete scam, total waste of money.
