Comments on: Microsoft offers peek at new Media Player

The first test version of Windows Media Player 10 is due Wednesday, but the biggest changes will be invisible to most users until later this year.

Frankly, who cares? Media Player is cumbersome to navigate, has a steep learning curve, is intrusive, has a footprint like Sasquatch, and is basically spyware with a nice skin.

So, gee, it's like about a thousand other Microsoft products.

Great Improvement!

As a Microsoft Digital Media MVP, I have had the chance to test early versions of the WMP10 Beta and have been impressed with what I have seen.

I see lots of folk "bash" MS, but rarely do these guys ACTUALLY look at the products in a real life! (They just treat MS Bashing as some kind of online sport).

The Windows Media Team have put a LOT of effort into this latest release and it shows....

A review of the current Public BETA will be posted later today (after the official MS public release) including some videos and screenshots.
