bhurtel Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 i will always prefer newer versionbecause newer means more facilities, more reliablity, more stable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suryad Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Not necessarily bhurtel...but in this case you happen to be right. 10 is better than 9. I hear 11 is coming out end of this year...or soemthing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHz Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Windows Media Player 8. The others win the ugly looks trophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron_ Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 I just love the GUI of the media player 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamiQuazi Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 I voted 10 because I liked the 3-paned design, It makes it easier to burn and transfer music to all of my mp3 players! I like the GUI better than 9, but where is the skin option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iCEhOT Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 Hrm cant really see much of a difference but i use 10 cos it's the latest.Erm, in response to the DRM post, try ripping with other ripping software, and encoding using LAME. Microsoft are trying to stop pirating etc using trusted computing and DRM, but if u use slightly older and free tools you wont have a problem with ur ripping.I use Audiograbber which is free, and LAME MP3 codec which is free, combined they produce very nice mp3s from the source, with no copyright problems what-so-ever - never ever use a microsoft tool for things like that!

xian7479 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 I think that WMP10 has more codecs than WMP9 thus surpport more media formats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCSE Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 hm, WMP9 is ok and you can to download patch for mp3 in WMP9,WMP10 have a pretty interface but is a slow...I don't know I using Winamp... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicfly Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Definitely WMP10.Its user interface is better and for my needs i feel better with WMP10, and i like upgrade my performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snekul Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 10, because newer is always better. Actually, I find the mild feature set improvement a plus, but I wouldn't be that upset if I had to use 9. I only use media player at work, don't want to put software on my computer that we don't let other users have. At home, its a combo of Winamp, iTunes, and a little bit of media player. I would never use Winamp, iTunes, or WMP to rip cds. I use Cdex and the latest copy of Lame for ripping and MP3 encoding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim-p Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 If mp3 ripping is the question,I use WMP 9 plus a little registry "hack" from www.winguides.com/registry to achieve high bitrate mp3 encoding.Along with that I use the Fraunhofer Pro mp3 encoder so it encodes as high as 320kbps Stereo (not Joint Stereo as in WMP10).It does the job for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper187 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 I prefer WMP8, but 9 is ok. The only major problem I think I had with WMP10 was that left/right arrows didn't work to seek while watching videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
