Jedi Master 0 Posted December 10, 2001 What specifically "sucks" about WMP8? It plays CD's, MP3's, DVD's (with a plug-in), can create playlists and burn them to CD's. Share this post Link to post

Palos 0 Posted December 11, 2001 bsplayer stands for bull$hitplayer... The Playa is retarded, primitive and a complete waste of KB MediaPlayer 6.4 was the fastest, easiest MP to date, then came 7 (with variations) and now we have 8. I guess they all do what they are supposed to do: play media, but some are better at it than others. Up to you to decide Share this post Link to post
EddiE314 0 Posted December 11, 2001 forgive me if i'm wrong, but can't you use 6.4 on XP by using the Win2000 version of it? i think i saw something about it a while back on www.etplanet.com Share this post Link to post
EddiE314 0 Posted December 11, 2001 WOO! yea, you can use 6.4 on XP, its works great too http://www.etplanet.com/windows/WindowsMediaPlayer/ download just the .EXE file for NT, its about 8KB, lol. Share this post Link to post
Xiven 0 Posted December 12, 2001 You don't need to download it - it's already there. Just run "mplayer2.exe" Actually I prefer Media Player 8 (using the default skin on MP8 makes it pretty much like 6.4 except for the fact that it's better at playing certain media types) Share this post Link to post
