There is no specific media player that you are "required" to have. You can use Windows Media Player 9, 10, or 11 on Windows XP. They are not part of the service pack and can be reverted to the previous version at any time. You can also use of the many third-party media player applications written for Windows, including VLC, Winamp, iTunes, or RealPlayer.
