It's not really a leak. A friend of mine testing Vista said it will be released to official testers next week.

Doesn't that make it a leak? I thought a leak was just anytime something was out before it was suppose to.

The build comming out next week is from a different build lab. This one really is a leak.

who uses windows media player anyway?

People who don't use iTunes, WinAmp 5 etc.

The Startmenu has a very messy appearance in Vista. Not sure why tho. :unsure:

Um, it's not even close to finished.

On the other hand, just wait til you see how nice it works.

The build will be out like next week on Connect ... That pretty much means torrent sites as well ... The build includes native 6800 LDDM drivers, for all the Nvidia people out there !

I'll have you know that a lot of people use Windows Media Player. iTunes and Winamp aren't the be all and end all of media players.

I'm looking forward to the beta of WMP 11. According to Paul Thurott, it should be out late December-early January.

A LOT of people use WMP (i'm one of them) although i've been using iTunes frequently since i got my nano, but i miss skipping back and forth with my remote control since iTunes doesnt work with the remote control once the window its out of focus, anyway... i like WMP and i think its going to be great in Vista :)

Can anyone with this new build confirm if it is possible to have Windows Media Player 10/11 in the transparent glass like the early WMP screens showed, or has that been ditched for this new teal 'corona' look

Actually... ~2 weeks from compile to leak isn't that long...

Builds can usually take months to leak to the public....
