On the CD itself....Look at the file structure to see what is where. Using
the built in interface is another adventure into mass market consumerism
that you realy realy dont want to go down. Yes they still need to have
that for the aolistic users, but as always its the tools we bring to bear
on a problem that make a solution.

Ok so now your looking at files. Skip anything thats not a .mp3 . The
Austin power preview is cool for a once off, the seal video only to see
the amazing Me Bond in a bad flick.

The music ill leave to personal judgements. For myself all I can say is I
have found more on mp3.com the site that I like than they thought to put
on the disc. Once again Im thinking its the base level broadbadn audience
they are hoping to hit with this...no use preaching to the choir.

Yea, about the same. I had a few copies sent to a few freinds who are not
familar with the mp3 sceen and they enjoyed it.

ouch. Mine used winamp fine. MM and the Real Audio flavor of that are too
bloated to be good players. Make sure you got the .mp3 extensions reged to
winamp...you can do that from inside winamps setup area.

Yea, teh whol thing was pretty jarjared. Nothing a good light saber cant
fix though...Swooosh..brokebroke.
