WMP11

May 25th, 2006

I just downloaded the new Windows Media Player 11. I hardly ever use the old one, but this version has a few good things going for it:
  • Song previews in URGE (the built in music store) don't abruptly stop when you continue browsing around.
  • Because the player is connected to MTV, VH1, etc. a little icon appears next to tracks with music videos. Click it and watch the video!
  • Pretty slick look and feel
Bad stuff not going for it:
  • Navigation is a pain.
  • Video content has ads.
NERD!
