    That's not reality. Because in reality people are collecting MP3 Files.
    And they want to put those MP3 Files to their devices. Most of them use
    IPod, and programs like
    Ephpod, Winamp or Realplayer just put those files on it. Only the Media
    player doesn't. It doen't mather how you call it, there is no technical
    problem solve, it already
    works. But Microsoft is too ignorant.
