It is interesting you mention MediaPlayer. Is there any way to make
Windows Media Player 11 more user friendly? I reverted back to 10, and
noticed right away that ripping CDS takes a while longer then I would like
it to take, but with 11, there are a lot of thigns that I don't care for
with it. This includes when trying to make an audio CD for a stereo, you
have these ads from one of the add ons and you can't relly tell how you
are doing with the creating of an audio CD. I also think that it may be a
culprit for blocking my access to youtube's videos, but I think now that
that problem may be as a result of a bad wireless connection that doesn't
like a lot of sound and picture coming through.
