Seems much more stable to me, and I get much less lag skipping through tracks.

been using it since the beta days...

its pretty good and seems snappier than wmp9... not a simlpe update... this baby does it all :)

I think m$ got worried with itunes invading its turf... I still prefer wmp to itunes simply because of integration with my keyboards controls (I don't even have to install software for it :D)

I pulled it off of Windows Update last night. The interface does seem a bit changed/I'm not sure if that is good or bad though. Will take getting used to though.

One quick question though... Prior versions of WMP had a "uniquely identify player" check box. No, I do not want my player uniquely identified (which also extended to IE it turned out). I've browsed around the options and what not, and can't seem to find this line item to uncheck it (unless it's now renamed to something that sounds, well somewhat similar). Has this moved, did they drop this, or what's the deal here?

I like the built in MP3 ripper, which is pretty fast and I can encode to a good bitrate. It's much snappier aswell. It's much better than iTunes.

Son Goku, it's still there. During the install I saw the installer working on the uniquely identify player software.

"Copy to cd or device" was missing from my right click menu so i went back to #9.

you can add items to a burn list with the right-click menu and then click on "burn" on the toolbar thinger on top and it will burn to your device :)

its a lot more functional than 9 was...

I thought I tried that, but my mp3 player wasnt listed in the final drop down box, in wm10.
Or did I miss understand you. :)

it works fine with all my removable storage devices... :confused:

is it not recognising your player?
