Uses 52,000 K of memory on my 512 MB system when playing just an MP3. I forgot how that compares to WMP10, but, it seems extremely high. iTunes uses 54,000 K, so I suppose it's not that high. I don't know how all that compares to VLC player.
What morons gave this a thumbs down? It's a legitimate question.Why rush like a lemming to install this thing without thinking about it? What improvements are there likely to be over WMP10? Microsoft's main interest is to control the media on your machine and prevent you from playing stuff that Microsoft and it's buddies the RIAA etc don't want you to. I think DRM is the area where WMP11 will differ from WMP10, and by differ I mean be a whole lot worse.I for one am extremely wary of installing this.
What im wondering is; how come softpedia has WMP11 but MS doesn't have it available for download off their servers? Im guessing softpedia paid MS to host the file, its a great advertising method. Anyone know other-wise?
To anybody looking for screenshots, I've put up a nice collection of them on my blog. It shows a summary of the install process, as well as the main sections of the interface. There are also three screens of the "Urge" music store!<a class="user" href="http://blog.sunsurfin.net">http://blog.sunsurfin.net</a>

I was only interested on testing the Library....here are some screenies:Album View (sorted alphabetically):<a class="user" href="http://img49.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wmp11digg2ne.jpg">http://img49.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wmp11digg2ne.jpg</a>Single Album View:<a class="user" href="http://img128.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wmp11digg29zx.jpg">http://img128.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wmp11digg29zx.jpg</a>The library has undergone some slight improvements, very responsive. I like the feature of "paste album art", like you can google image an artist and copy the pic on the clipboard (without locally saving) then go back to WMP11 and paste it there and it will be automatically edit. Pretty neat I'd say. Less tiresome than in Itunes.But other than that, nothing really compelling that'd make me shift to WMP11, and stick with Itunes library browser's simplicity. 2 cents.

it doesn't like m4as.... they're "other media" according to MP11. which isn't going to make people switch from iTunes any time soon.
