If you are using Windows then you can use Windows Media Player. The latest stable version is 10 and version 11 beta is available for testing. To download Windows Media Player go to Microsoft's download page (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/Browse.aspx?displaylang=en&categoryid=4)
If you want a more robust video player then VLC might be a good alternative. (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/)
"VLC (initially VideoLAN Client) is a highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg, ...) as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols. It can also be used as a server to stream in unicast or multicast in IPv4 or IPv6 on a high-bandwidth network." -- betanews.com
Most DVD movies, like the ones you might borrow from your local Blockbuster, are in the MPEG-2 format. VLC media player has no problem playing these DVD's. It can play almost any video file that you might find on the Internet, including DivX and AVI. And, best of all, VLC is totally free.
