This is ridiculous, I agree about the part of "bundling" but the European Commision could simply ask to make a sort of option to install WMP or not during the OS install and not asking to make a new whole package of XP. How they gonna call it now ... Windows XP Lite ... give me a break.

@Jim

Very good point. I always thought that Microsoft were guilty of much worse monopolising crimes than simply bundling it's media player with windows, but maybe this at least marks the first step towards dismantaling Bill's thoroughly sickening empire. What amuses me is that windows media player is actually not that bad a program. From what I can gather though, WMP will still be included as an optional installation component upon installing windows.

@vlam

I agree entirely, realplayer is b****y awful. According to ZDnet, realplayer look likely to be the first to 'compete' for the free media player spot. I just hope that winamp gets a look in first!
