Microsoft Media Player Draws Praise | |

Microsoft's Windows updates have often been a mixed bag, fixing one problem and causing others, but there's one available that deserves a look. Windows Media Player 9 Series is available for Windows XP. Me, 2000 and 98 SE. and it's a free download that accomplishes three goals not always met: 1. It works as advertised. 2. It doesn't mess up anything else. 3. It's kind of nifty. | ||

Criminy! And it doesn't play my proprietary .QuijiboXJ42MonkeySpank files, either!
If it's too much of a resource hog, there's always "mplayer2.exe"... or better yet, you could just use something _else_ (insert your favourite freeware player name here) Anyway, I happen to like the new version (but only in XP, for the taskbar minimization stuff) |

| It might use the same memory as Winamp, but it uses much more CPU than Winamp. At least more than Winamp 2 (I deleted Winamp 3). |
