There's nothing standardized about Windows Media products except that they all suck.
I'm convinced that M$ will never make proper software. Maybe it could, maybe not. The sole reason they have become so big in the past 20 years is their skill to sell garbage to people and then make them buy it over and over again. If Windows actually worked, people wouldn't "upgrade" it. They have managed to keep this business model up by buying out all their competitors. Now that Linux is becoming popular, they have to add more "innovative" shit into their OS. Look at Winblowsche XP: It's filled with idiotic crap such as automatic desktop customization, shrinking out all the "unnecessary" (necessary) options in menu bars etc. Then you need a guide to find out how to disable these "features".

Shiver, I couldn't have said it better myself.
