Another one of Microsoft's horrors. They purposely want control of both the server and the player. Shame on them. I refuse to play the game, too: if the stream I want isn't available in non-windows format I will not listen to it. Any web site that's got their act together offers at least RealPlayer if not QuickTime in addition to WMP. If your favorite stream is only in WMP you should lobby the company to server in both formats. Sites that only server WMP are assisting the Monopoly. Boycott them until they see the error of their ways. JW At 07:44 AM 11/12/2000 -0800, you wrote:

Did you mean asf? Are you referring to Active Server Pages or streaming media?
I guess it would be streaming media. I found a site the lets you hear twisted tunes and they are all the .asp type. Well that is what i thought they where. Now i see thay are actually .asx. Where did i get the p from.
