Could be, I am sure the enhancements will still be nice, but as for the music industry they have missed that ship by a few years.

Then again it is Microsoft so who knows what and who they will buy to get into it.

haha I'm not in any hurry to get another RAM intensive WMP that overzealously takes over all your music and media files.

Start > Run > mplayer2 for me! :D

Just curious...since it's not an official release from Microsoft...are there any bugs/viruses in the program. You never know with these third party sites. Thanks.

Yeah... I just found one. This distribution doesn't support PlaysForSure devices. It made Windows unable to detect my Zen Vision: M. Get the one officially released by Microsoft here:

I use MPlayer as well, but it doesn't play the latest WMV files :(
Guess I have to deal with microsoft's shit.
