Audio Player

7
I'm looking to possibly use C++ to write an very simple Audio Player to experiment with audio files such as .midi (if theres a more basic one please let me know lol). I know little to nothing about audio files. First off is C++ a good language to use to do something like this or am I better off using another language. Any information or locations of information I could get on reading audio files and how they're encoded and stuff would be great.
:)

Regards,
Drew

Which platform?
If it is Windows than it would be simplest to use MCI.
Check out this simple audio player.It plays most types of audio and it's open source so you learn how did authors do it.
