    This is a nice player to allow you to play .rar files without extracting the files first. Very handy ;)

    don't they just extract while playing(or am i missing something)? takes a couple of seconds to start with small files and longer with larger files...
    won't you need to store the file anyway therefroe having to ultimately ectract it?

    While talking about RAR, is there a way to integrate RAR into Windows? So I can use RAR-files just like I do with ZIP without having to start a separate program every time?

    Not that I'm aware of. I tested it this evening and it plays very well and fast.

    If you wanted to watch an .avi file without having to extract it and doubling your disk space. This is only handy if you had to keep the .rar files on your computer for a few days, if not of course you can just extract the file(s) and delete the .rar.
