Which computer programs can I dump?

I was just browsing through the "Add/Remove Programs" section in my Control Panel, and I noticed several programs that look like they are doing the same thing:

Quicktime

iTunes

MusicMatch Jukebox

MusicMatch for Windows Media Player

Viewpoint Media Player

Realplayer Basic

In the interest of saving space, I'd like to dump some of these programs if they are basically redundant.

Any advice?

    I suggest you keep quicktime and go ahead and remove the rest. You may need some media player at some point in the future.

    these programs are small you will save very little space

    the music is what is eating your space, but you'd be better getting a new hard drive they are cheap 1.5 TB for $200 or less
