 | look for "realplayer alternative" and "quicktime alternative".  they're basically the proprietry codecs the
 players use, but they're made as system codecs (i.e. you
 install them, then use your favourite player (media player,
 etc) to play it).
 
 i'm not sure if winamp reads system codecs (it never used
 to, but seeing as it plays video now, and supports
 streaming, it just might...) but the bundled "media player
 classic" plays realplayer/quicktime streams fine, both video
 and audio.
