I too, like it better then CDEX. It has a bigger data base. My MP3 player 
doesn't support wma files so I'm glad they rip to MP3 now.

Actually, Media Player 0 has a great ripping tool now, too.  I like it =
quite a bit better than even CDEX, and it is much faster.

Note that previous versions of Media Player did not support encoding into =
mp3 format, but I guess MS finally saw the light and began supporting mp3 =
in addition to wma.  Of course, to play those songs on BP, you will need =
to rip to mp3 files.
