More VLC Media Player Spam Lands in the Windows 8 Store

VLC Media Player for Windows 8 is still under development right now, so third-parties across the world are trying to make the most of this by releasing basic clones of the app.

Two new entries have landed in the Store today, trying to trick people into believing that they are downloading the real app.

Called VLCC Direct Pro Video Player and VIC* Media Player *, both apps come with a $5.99 (?4.49) price tag and offer no trial version to give users the change to try them out before buying the full builds.

The descriptions published in the Store are rather basic, while the available screenshots reveal almost nothing about the built-in features. Both are created by a developer called ?Puvish.?

While it's still difficult to understand how come Microsoft approves such listings, keep in mind that VLC for Windows 8 will be here soon, so check twice before buying any multimedia player that claims to be the real VLC.
