WinNetMag | at | by Mike
Microsoft today has released the final version of Windows Media Player (WMP) 10, the latest rendition of its all-in-one digital media management and jukebox application. WMP 10 builds off the success of the previous version, adding a cleaner, simpler user interface, integration with a number of online music and video stores through what Microsoft calls the Digital Media Mall, and support for a new generation of subscription based services and devices.
"We've upgraded our digital media capabilities pretty dramatically with our new Windows Media Player 10 release," Dave Fester, the General Manager of Microsoft's Windows Consumer business, said at a reviewers workshop last month. "We want to upgrade the existing Windows XP installed base and give them new media experiences."
