I want to find a component that can play back pretty much any sound format through DirectWhateverThey'reUsingForThatTheseDays, but won't charge me an arm and a leg if I want to use it commercially. It doesn't have to have a ton of features for editing files or streaming them or heaven-only-knows-what else, like FMOD and BASS do (which no doubt contributes to their high licensing cost,) but it has to be able to play back any format, including MIDI, which nothing I've seen except BASS supports, unless it's a MIDI-only component.

Does any package like this exist? If so, where can I find it?
