Don't forget this thread. Since WMP is embedded with the OS they are allowed to be arrogant and deliver whatever they feel is needed. If a media player was not delivered with the OS I wonder if itunes would be on the majority of pcs.

I definately want it to play rm and quicktime file. Just pay them out Microsoft! And make it (un)FairPlay compatible... at least it'd keep all the idots with iPods happy.

WMP does allow 3rd party codecs to be installed and will play the associated files, yet will not list the playable files in the Media Library.

It's been more than three years since this reasonably trivial feature addition was requested. 

Sheesh.   Sad

I would chuck the whole UI, no one wants a big bulky media player, and keyboard controls would definitely help.  Take a page from winamps book.
