For media host players, I really like the look and functionality of the Captivate player.
For my portfolio page, I used Castbox to get a consistent visual feel with clients on different hosting platforms.
Megaphone has always been my favorite. But Transistor and Simplecast are great as well. Player design has always been q really big deal to me, but people don’t talk about it too much.
