How do I write a simple MP3 program?

[Datalyss1]

And what's the best programming language to use?

I wanna write a program that has absolutely no interface, and relies solely on Windows' association function.

Do you mean a program that just plays an MP3 file straight off without any interface? That'd be dead simple to do using Java and something like the JMF or JLayer (you'd need to use one of those external libraries though unless you wanted the huge task of writing your own!)

You can try this link. It shows a very basic program in C using only the Windows Library VFW32.lib: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/audio-video/mp3player.aspx
