Windows Media Player 11 to arrive in June

Posted on Monday, April 17 2006 @ 23:27 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck
By the end of June, Microsoft will release Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP. This version will also be featured by Windows Vista.
While most people won't be able to get their hands on Vista until next year, consumers will be able to get some of the media enhancements sooner. Microsoft is on track to release a Windows XP version of Windows Media Player 11 before the end of June, the company confirmed last week.

Microsoft has been uncharacteristically tight-lipped about the XP incarnation. The company briefly demonstrated it at the Consumer Electronics Show in January but has said little since. Microsoft has said the XP version won't have all the features of its Vista sibling, but the company won't say which features will be excluded. The company also has yet to offer a public test version of the software.
