Windows Media Player inquiry

Hey guys,
I was wondering if I could revert back to Windows Media Player 11 on Windows Seven. I mean, the whole new WMP in Windows 7 is nice and all, but I MUCH rather WMP11, kind of like what you see in WinXP and Vista.
I already have Seven installed. Is this an option, or just a dream?

Yes it can be done, not sure it's legal though.

Sigh, I really liked how WMP11 was set up...

WMP12 can be setup like WMP11 was on the taskbar.

I haven't tested it myself but defo looks like it's worth a try!

In earlier builds it was horrible. They've sorted it in the final release though (at least for me ). Which build are you using thx76uk?
What seems to be buggy?

The crazy thing is I thought WMP 12 was used in WMC and that runs fine !
