"... as part of a general pull back from Mac consumer software"Examples?And don't give me IE or WMP.I'm suprised by MS support for the Mac platform. And in my opinion the biggest announcement on Tuesday was by Roz Ho promising Spotlight support in Entourage by March. Of all the new Mac product releases this would be the only one directly affecting my daily work.no digg and reported as lame

About time, wmp is one of the worse products i've ever had to use. Windows media in general needs to be expelled from the computing world.

I guess this makes choosing a media format easy. Who would choose a WMP when it's only supported by Windows? QuickTime is obviously the way to go.
