Music and Videos on the Web

One great thing about Windows Media Player is that it is equipped to handle just about any kind of audio or video it finds on the Net. Simply click the sound or video link, and Windows Media Player fires up with its familiar, easy-to-use controls. As you surf the Net, you will find you can use Windows Media Player to watch movie trailers, see video game footage, or listen to sound clips of a soon-to-be-released single.

Go ahead, give it a test drive. Launch Windows Media Player with a live connection to the Internet and then click the Media Guide button. From there, you can jump to Movies, Music, Business, Webcams, or Sports, to name just a few topics. Try one video and an audio clip. It is just like playing a regular CD.
