Upgraded to latest iTunes with intention of buying wife some Celine Dion and myself some Korn. However, their server seems to be overloaded this evening and won't let me register.
Anyway, decided to let Quicktime become the default mp3 player. One of my gripes with using Windows Media Player to play podcasts, particularly the Daily Source Code (which I listen to while rowing) is that I have to wait for the entire 20M or so file to download before it starts playing, which takes a couple of minutes and is a bind: I can't start rowing.
I had been thinking that surely a decent player would be able to start playing the audio stream while the file was still downloading and, sure enough, I tried it with QuickTime 6 and it works! No need to wait. Maybe Windows Media Player doesn't do this as part of an evil plan to discredit mp3 files.
