Wohoo! I posted a rumor on C&G yesterday about it, but I’m glad it did get released today. Downloading it right now. Here is what I got from some other message board:
> The skin, which is mostly of a glassy-blue gradient has received many negative reactions as Microsoft seems to be **‘going blue’** on most of their recently released applications.
> Going blue is the way to actually go 😛

The glossy icon for the WMP looks really nice. I just noticed it 🙂

I prefer the look and features of iTunes.
Stupid me, I installed the beta about 1 hour before full was released.

Try that link. You should only see the link for WMP10.

Nope - it’s only for XP. I don’t think MS has plans for releasing a version for other Win OS’es.

I always do that kind of thing (I install the beta test/RC of something, and then the full product comes out the next day :P)
As for me, I think I’ll stick with [MPlayer (for video) and [url=“http://rhythmbox.org”]Rhythmbox](http://mplayer.hu) (for music).[url=“[http://mplayer.hu](http://mplayer.hu)”]

The only difference I noticed was that I didn’t have to restart my comp after install.

Now, my eye’s are a little bit watery with the recent breakout of ragweed (joy, allergies) so it might just be me - but does this picture say “rip - bum - sync”? 
(I’ll download and report on WMP10 later, I’m a tad busy at the moment)
