| 591958 | 2007-09-17 11:34:00 | Aah but it doesn't send you anywhere near a M$ store. It sends me to Digirama when I click it | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 591959 | 2007-09-17 12:22:00 | See, their not completely evil. I mean we could talk about Apple and how your locked into iTunes and its store but lets not... I suppose it could just be for people who have a short clip or a bad copy of a song and they might be willing to pay for a proper, full copy of it. |

| 591960 | 2007-09-17 15:38:00 | Hey...I don't get that crawl in WMP10! Is it on the bottom of the player? What I guess I am saying is that I don't see it and don't really want to know about it....unless it's just something else wrong with the new player I mean.....then I can use it as a weapon in my personal war against v11. |

Hmmm... "Most" you say? Sure about that? Personally never used WMP to play audio. Only time ever was for vid clips. |
