During the Windows Media Player 10 install, you will be shown a "Select your Privacy Options" dialog box. For maximum privacy, consider unchecking every checkbox when this appears before clicking the "Next" button to continue your install. However, if you frequently download .WMA music files over the Internet, consider keeping checked the button "Acquire licenses automatically for protected content". This will make the process of purchasing and playing your online music easier.

With millions of devices able to receive audio content automatically through Windows Media Player. (Pocket PC, Rio Karma, Creative MuVo, Creative Zen PMC and Dell DJ are just the devices I own that fit this description), it's only a matter of time before we see an iPodder client with software media player independence. In the meantime, using the autoplaylist feature of Windows Media Player 10, combined with Auto-synchronization is an easy hack for streamlining the process. In fact, this hack is more fully automatic than the Windows/iTunes/iPod solution. Currently there is no way to keep Windows Media Player from automatically attempting to connect to the Internet when you try to play specially crafted Windows Media files. The updates to Media Player 9 and 10, expected within a month, will allow users to prevent such Internet access when media files are played. The free RealPlayer 10.5 is the first media player that integrates Real's revolutionary new Harmony technology. This media player enables consumers to buy and download music that plays on more than 100 portable devices, including the Apple iPod. RealPlayer is the only digital-media player you need for finding and downloading new music, playing and managing audio and video clips, and taking your digital entertainment with you. RealPlayer offers a streamlined interface that allows you to keep your media library close. When a user tries to play a protected Windows media file, this technology demands a valid licence. If the license is not stored on the computer, the application will look for it on the internet, so that the user can acquire it directly or buy it. This technology is incorporated through the Windows XP Service Pack 2 + Windows Media Player 10 update.
