Playlist doesn’t contain any multimedia content, it is only list of media files selected from a hard disk or other media.
M3U and M3U8 playlists can be opened in a variety of media players, such as Winamp, KMPlayer, iTunes, VLC media player etc.
The M3U8 file extension is used for playlists that are stored in the M3U UTF-8 (Unicode) text playlist format.
