Hi, Brad, no, but the question was to try and convince a stonch media
player 9 hard core user to switch to winamp, because, out of all the
people on the list, he is the only one having trouble playing files,
and he expects me to check mp3's with both that player, and winamp,
just for him, and I won't, because I use winamp, and I can only go by
what files do on my system, so I suggested he change to winamp, and
hence, came the nasty note, so, since he and his sighted companion play
dvd's, I thought I'd ask about dvd support to try and convince him to
try winamp, because at least, if files won't work, they won't work for
everybody, and not just those who use another player.
