Microsoft has released the latest beta version (download) of Windows Media Player, version 11. WMP11 sports an improved UI, better performance and improved library features. The subscription based service, URGE, is integrated into the client and offers quick and easy downloads of the latest tunes for $14.95 per month. URGE is currently being offered as a 14 day trial for a limited period. I was writing about this service already, it’s offered by MTV. Microsoft hopes to attract more people into using WMP11 by offering additional features in the Vista client such as Media Center integration. Although this new version works a bit faster and has some nice new features, I’m still happy user of BSPlayer which has all the settings and features I need, so there’s no reason to change the video player to WMP 11…Wednesday, October 1, 2008
