I agree that the player is a useful tool for inet developers, but my question is "How the heck are they going to make money on this?"

Anyone remember PKZIP? Very useful tool, but it only won the battle for compression utility because it was given away for free... others who tried to charge for similar tools found that loyalty in software utilities is a funny thing...
