Although I was perfectly happy with WMP10 on my laptop, I decided to go ahead and give WMP 11 a shot to see if it was any better.
My initial impression that it was very bloated..at least for my system. It took much longer to load, and the memory consumption was increased as well. I dont use WMP 11 for more than playing videos and DVD's so I could not justify the extra bloatedness for no extra functionality that I would be using. I uninstalled it and rolled it back to WMP 10 and I'm happy again. Now keep in mind, this is a Pentium M 735, 512MB Ram, Windows XP. Not exactly a hotrod compared to the newer dual core systems.
Just wondering what other opinions of WMP 11 compared to WMP 10 are.
