BluesKajbummer , typical , Canadians get ripped off again , having to pay for an OS , basically a royalty to MS , that we don't need or will never use :(16:09

BluesKajW7 media players suck , that's one of the main reasons i won't use W7, altho it's not a bad OS compared to the previos MS OSs16:13
BluesKajWindows indexes the media files , but can't resolve between titles , so it ends up doubling and triple listing media files in any players installed including open source ones16:33
BluesKajIt's especially bad with files transferred between pcs on a network , it then lista everyfile file available on the network in playlists in duplicate and triplicate , unable to differentiate between exact copies of the same title16:40
