100% agreement. However there are others (such as myself) who chose
to follow a different path. I do not run linux but instead one of
the *BSD* variants and 'mplayer' runs very nicely.
Winbloze users are a "click&drool" crowd - no pretty picture to
click on and they do not know what to do.

Du hast recht! Ooops - english list, You have it correct!. M$
wants you to "trust them" and in exchange you get lots of pretty
pictures but no control over the system - and you remain as stupid
as before you trusted M$ :(
winblows than let him use media player and if it likes mplayer switch to Linux

Well, this is not the forum to advocate one OS over another (M$ systems
do not count because they are nothing more than GUI game loaders ;))
but linux is but one choice folks can make - I prefer the BSD
flavor myself (and I am using MPlayer as I type this to watch a
movie - and for that I thank the developers of MPlayer for accepting
my changes).
