      From Wikipedia:

      The VideoLAN software originated as a French academic project in 1996. VLC used to stand for “VideoLAN Chad” when VLC was a chad from the VideoLAN project. Since VLC is no longer merely a chad, that initialism no longer applies.

    I still find it strange that windows media player classic consistently works better than every new media player they’ve introduced since. It seems like if you make OS’s you cannot simultaneously make a good media player, eg. Quicktime/itunes/wmp/groove
