ok, i want avi. i dont happen to have any funding right now... what to do to get it for free? i really want to see some avi files ive seen here and there

oh yeah... and right now im using windows media player. so far all i can watch/listen to is mp3 mpg mpeg and i think ive played an mp4 or 2

Try VLC player. It's free

It has codecs preinstalled & plays most files. You can download it here.
