I know there are three ways of spelling the word Cd player in Russian that are considered correct, and I was just wondering which one do you use, and which is the most common one?

IMHO, it`s a "Си-Ди плэйер". Or may be "проигрыватель Компакт-дисков" or "проигрыватель КД-ПЗУ"![]()
The bear looked at the car, and reflections of fire danced in his eyes. He knew what to do.
I actually was told that those three are correct:
плейер
плеер
плэйер
плеер here.
The other two words simply show how the word плеер is pronounced![]()

Well, the right pronunciation is плэер.
Some people say it like плеер with soft л, but it sounds unnatural and cr@ppy.
And плэйер/плейер is too hard to pronounce because it sounds like 2 words плэй-ер and certainly sounds cr@ppy :)
I forgot to say that I meant that those words show how they're pronounced for native speakers.
I don't like it either when people pronounce words like детектив, плеер they way you mentioned .
