I'll give that number twos. GOM works for me :lol:

So it can get stuffed. plus it makes my mp3's sound all scratchy and horrible.

Winamp all the way

581757 2007-08-18 02:55:00 Google is actually closing their movie renting website due to lack of business.

And that is the crux of the problem. Those who have bought movies from Google need the Google video service running to play them. When it closes bye bye movie playback thanx to DRM..

Winamp can do that also, and with Ctrl+V shortcut if you want
