That's for sp2 rollout. WMP10 is completely separate from sp2.

I could say the same about AOL :ninja:

you could but you would not be correct ;)

[SuperJediMedia]

I love the NEW design, that moved the buttons horizontal, rather than vertical before. I love that change, myself!!!

:o I thought I read that WMP10 was going to be one of the selling points of the new Windows XP "Reloaded" campaign? :unsure:

At this stage, I don't think that they have time for that. Beside, it's not like Microsoft to bundle anything like this into Service Packs. The reason for that is probably because new features = more regression test, and new features = more possible vulnerability and that's the last thing they want.

There never was going to be any "XP Reloaded", it was just a rumor.

If it is, the 300 million bucks you mentioned is not part of any reloaded ad campaign. It is simply the cost for pushing out sp2.

you mean.

to pay for the support they are going to need for ie. hahaha.

No, I mean for distibuting the software and advertising it and getting it out to as many people as fast as possible.

300 Million is a lot of money. I rather be compensated by Microsoft; by them sending all registered Windows XP users a free XP SP2 Full Version CD, then Microsoft trying to better it's market position in the market and make itself look good and feel better about a swiss cheese operating system being released in the first place.

IMHO of course.

[Veedems Veteran]

No, I'd rather them push this thing out to the people too lazy to update otherwise. I paid my money and am happy with the product I received. I'm not happy with all my friends being idiots and not updating though.

[Toxikk Veteran]

i know dude.

i was just playin. i just hope it's worth it.

I understand. :$

But people do get a bit peeved when after installing their shiny new Windows XP with SP1 they are presented with over 20 MB worth of updates, especially if they live in a country like Australia where boardband is not accessible everywhere and is expensive. :ermm:

,Jun 2 2004, 17:43] :laugh:? We agree, I like your summary of WMP10 Toxikk.

I am though quite dissapointed with the efforts that Microsoft has put into this product. I really thought they were going to do something special for their "Reloaded" 300 million dollar investment.

Would you rather they do nothing? Any update (no matter how small) is better then nothing.

If you don't like it don't use it.

WMP10's pretty cool, runs way better than WMP9. The new skin is good upgrade from WMP9. :)

[User_Deleted]

[Hypoxiaicon]

Well i like it, can only get better since this A Technical Beta.

How many people thought this was a final release? :p

What happened to the list box thing above the media info which allowed you to choose the playis easily? That was a quick way to choose a playlist. Also what's up with the gap at the start of the songs area?

[himal00]

I love the new look!! Its more modern. Anyway how do i rip cds in mp3 format? cos when i go yo options and rip music and then to rip settings all i get in rip format is wma, wma variable bit rate, wma loseless and mpeg layer-3! So how do i Rip in mp3?? and i ws wondering if there was a way to access skin chooser more easily? Thanx!!

[icecaveman]

Oh man I love it :) only thing I don't like on it is I can't remove the color from the bar with on-line sores, or remove the online stores as I'm not purchasing music from USA!

[Timan Veteran]

I love it so far, but when trying to use the new option to sync with a device, it recognises my SPV E200 Smartphone, but doesn't find the Storage Card :(

Anyone else with this problem?
