1.  Plays everything.
2.  Works well with networks and remotes
3.  Has a nice ten foot interface (Theater View)
4.  Delivers high quality audio and video
5.  A great forum with a lot of engaged users

I said what I've said before, that we're trying to let you play any media, anytime, anywhere.

So help me out.  Why did you choose JRiver?

For me, it was mostly number 4. I wanted the best audio and video available. 

It was also important to me that the program be updated often when changes/improvements are made (such as updates/improvements to LAV and madVR, or internal improvements).

I also wanted a program were all the components (audio, video, TV, file system, etc.) are designed and integrated to work together.

I like the idea that the program provides "developer" support when I have a problem or question.

Lastly, I wanted a program that doesn't require the User to be a computer/htpc expert to setup and use.

For me, I came because:

1. Tagging, Organization
2. Networking, Library Server
3. HD audio support

I came from a box that was never going to go in the direction I wanted, and found that JRiver did everything I wanted. Organizing audio and video files quickly from a single source and sharing that library all through the house and on devices was a dream come true.

However, I stayed because of:

1. High quality audio
2. DSP
3. High quality video

For me it was the fast flexibele database that I could present in anyway that I wanted with view schemes that first attracted me to jrmc.

My use of jrmc evolves constantly. Right now I use it for tagging and for its DSP through the wdm driver in our stereo setup. I do have it setup on all pc's as a player.
