i'm listening right now to my newest babe, the Windows Media Player 10! i love how it looks in my computer, being blue (windows xp blue, what a beautiful color!) and having delirious visualizations (unlike the old versions where you see "pineapple rings" -- totally tacky) plus, i got giddy after opening this download because i never really listen to WMP anymore... it's usually Kazaa-preview after downloading the mp3s.. which i'm thinking of dl'ing a the Kazaa v3.0 right now...

i like the features of WMP10, not like it changed or anything, but it's much easier to use for ripping, burning, sync-ing to portables... though i HEAVILY, HEARTILY wish i had one of those... heck, it wouldn't be long baby!!! plus, the cool thing is the "Rating System" where you rate the songs (5 stars for the best, that stuff)... the stuff you've rated will then be recalled in an Auto Playlist where it plays the songs with the same stars... and i assume they're your favorites! plus, you can instantly put mp3s to the library by simply playing it in there. the Library arranges your songs by album (alphabetical), so you wouldn't get lost even if you ripped half of the album in separate decades! i like how it organizes itself.... very neat! and the buttons & stuff are cute. maybe i just miss playing songs in a hip manner. for the moment, I LOVE IT!!!! :)
