Such applications, specifically multimedia players, are the Windows Media Player and RealOne. These applications have web browsing functions on top of their multimedia playback and recording capabilities, not to mention CD and DVD burning features.

stand-alone application for the damn job?! Further developments of the RealOne Player would even provide internet surfers complete security tools for their internet site browsing ventures.
