I love it, it has a much better setup, and a much sleeker look. But would have been much better if MS included some cool features.

I love it too, it has a much sleeker look. Only problem is when you want to know the info on the song, you go click "Info Center View" it wont show the info and will show you the error saying it cant across that. Be still in beta ... i wait till they fix the bugs on that.

I like the new look of the WMP10 beta - the only problem i've found is that it takes longer to open a video than WMP9, with the audio starting before the video. It's probably my system though! Oh, and I don't like the lack of support for the toolbar, although this will probably be fixed in the final version. I haven't had a chance to test the much-vaunted video capture yet, so can't comment on that. Overall though - very impressed! thumbsup

i love it and wouldnt go back to 9 series.

even tho i love it, i still think some 'cool sh*t' needs to be put in, i am all for cool little things in programs.

i also think they need to get back on work with visualizations!

I love it to but i see a thing lacking

Suppose we have choosen hide menu bar . We dont see menu

& if we want to browse and open a particular file we can press ctrl + O from Keyboard to open a new file using open dialog box.

For those who have habit of working using mouse only i.e. if the put when hand in pocket & do their most of work with mouse and dont want to touch the keyboard the will first have to choose show meny bar & then click Open which is is little tedious (as its a long way ) . The ver 9 had a button (where the currently playing track is shown) to open browse the song u wanna play that was hand .....

This buton is missing in Ver 10. or i have poor eye sight lol lol


For those who want to have ver 9 windows media player back can get back by choosing the systemn restore from the time u instaled it But be caution this way you may also loose the aplication installed inbetween the time
