    Well I was all psyched to try and download Napster and give it a try. But it won't install without WMP 7.1 :( Oh well, maybe someother time :) ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire! Real Mentats use only 100% pure, unfooled around with Sapho Juice(tm)! SELECT * FROM User WHERE Clue > 0 0 rows returned

      WMP? Weapons of Media Protection? Cheers The universe is driven by the complex interaction between three ingredients: matter, energy, and enlightened self-interest.

          Napster requires WMP 7.1 or higher because the DRM we use was introduced with 7.1. What's keeping you from updating your WMP? --Mike-- Ericahist [updated Oct 26] | CP SearchBar v2.0.2 | Homepage | RightClick-Encrypt | 1ClickPicGrabber There is a saying in statistics that a million monkeys pounding on typewriters would eventually create a work of Shakespeare. Thanks to the Internet, we now know that this is not true.

WMP 6.4 is all I need! :-D The kindest thing you can do for a stupid person, and for the gene pool, is to let him expire of his own dumb choices.

              Mainly it would mean one more MS product that I now have to wonder if I have it patched up correctly and I just don't feel like dealing with it. Just out of technological curiousity, was the WMP DRM superior to something homegrown? Or was this partly chosen due to licenesing issues with the record companies? ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire! Real Mentats use only 100% pure, unfooled around with Sapho Juice(tm)!

I know that the early incarnations of Pressplay used RealAudio and another DRM, but that was eventually dropped for MS stuff. --Mike-- Ericahist [updated Oct 26] | CP SearchBar v2.0.2 | Homepage | RightClick-Encrypt | 1ClickPicGrabber #include "witty-quote.h"
