You must have misread somewhere, nowhere have I intended to imply that there are no alternatives, merely that MS use their dominant position to push their media player on people. And to play windows media files, I still have to have a copy of WMP for the codecs, and for some funny reason these days a lot of videos seem to be distributed in wmv format.
