I like WMP as my universal player, and it's another improvement from M$ because I love the new instant search...Still handles tags like Sh!t though

What's the version number?

I have 11.0.5705.5043

I think mine has auto-updated.

I'm actually going to use it.

It goes great with my Vista visual style, and I haven't been able to find anything even close with a Winamp skin.

That's weird. I never cared for a player based it's visual style first.

Functionality has always been my number one.

What version number is yours?

Mine's 11.0.5721.5145, I got it from download's on M$ (so official 'final' on WMP).
I'm into Vista-theme myself so I love the new WMP look also.

Mine's also 11.0.5705.5043 it's still beta 2 didn't auto update and won't. I'm sticking to vlc.

Thanks man. I guess it won't autoupdate from the beta.

Funny too that it uses the same filename for setup. There's no differentiation between the beta and the final.

Functionality is my number one too, but the only function I really care about is whether or not it plays my music without hassle. I'm not one to harp about plugins and the like.

WMP and Winamp I like equally. I really don't have any bitches or gripes about either. Right now WMP 11 has the visual style I like, so I'm going with it.

Btw, my version is from the original link - 11.0.5721.5145
