+README for the VLC media player
+===============================
+
+VLC is a popular libre and open source media player and multimedia engine,
+used by a large number of individuals, professionals, companies and
+institutions. Using open source technologies and libraries, VLC has been
+ported to most computing platforms, including GNU/Linux, Windows, Mac OS X,
+BSD, iOS and Android.
+VLC can play most multimedia files, discs, streams, allows playback from
+devices, and is able to convert to or stream in various formats.
+The VideoLAN project was started at the university École Centrale Paris who
+relicensed VLC under the GPLv2 license in February 2001. Since then, VLC has
+been downloaded close to one billion times.
