^^ Your system would be really bloated with so many apps that do the SAME thing...

i dont think you're suppose to install them all at once.......... i dont think i have more than 10 apps installed. sometimes is when i need an app i install it...... some of them just sit around on the pc n running with windows using up my precious memory as is right now.

As Danthony said. It depends on what you want to do. If you looking for a media player. Anyone on the list would do just fine. If you want a burner etc.....
Just a matter of which best suits your needs since all apps of their respective categories don't normally have the same exact functions and abilities.

Just found Gbridge browsing a review on free remote access tools. Looks SWEET. Gotta check it out soon. Only downsides I'm seeing is that you need a GMail account and it's Window$ only (but TeamViewer - my main RAT - now works on Linux too !)...

Gbridge is a free software that lets you remotely control PCs, sync folders, share files, and chat securely and easily. An extention of Google's gtalk service, Gbridge automatically forms a collaborative, encrypted VPN (Virtual Private Network) that connects your computers and your friends' computers directly and securely. Gbridge has many unique features.

What can you do after installing Gbridge


If you have a single computer running Gbridge

* Use EasyBackup to automatically backup your important folders locally.
* Chat with your friends if they use Gmail or Gtalk.
* Invite your friends to use Gbridge themselves.

If you have two or more of your own computers running Gbridge

* Secure, instant access to your files on one PC from another PC, anywere in the world: download important files, stream MP3s, and view pictures using SecureShare.
* Use AutoSync to transfer big files and synchronize folders between your computers.
* Use EasyBackup to automatically backup your important folders to another computer.
* Securely control your computer remotely using (built-in) VNC-based DesktopShare or Microsoft Remote Desktop.

If your friends are running Gbridge too!

* Use SecureShare to instantly share photos with your friends. Auto-generate thumbnails and slideshows -- no uploading required!
* Use AutoSync to exchange large files, or even whole folders, with your friends. Sharing gigabytes of home video files becomes a snap!
* Invite your friends to see or control your desktop, or have them invite you to see or control theirs: ideal for remote computer assistance and presentations, and a great way to telecommute when you need to.

I'm just about bouncing with the prospect of trying this out .
