So I read in Cnet this morning that Microsoft is looking to launch Windows Media Player 11 as a free Windows XP upgrade come June or so.
One angle you could take here is that this “better explains” their claims that they didn’t have the time to put a Podcatcher into the thing as it really isn’t part of Vista, it’s a release to help support their MTV venture.
Another angle you could take is that if Windows Media Player 11 isn’t really part of Vista (and since IE7 is on a ton of XP desktops, we know that one isn’t either), Vista is becoming less and less important.
8 kabillion employees, a bazillion dollars in revenue, and nobody can figure out to subscribe to Podcasts with Windows Media Player.
What am I missing?
