   Creating file associations for WMP still works.

   --- Old review; no longer applies ---
   
   Previous versions (for me at least) would've been 5/5. Maybe it's just my setup, but I find that K-Lite doesn't allow to set file associations for WMP anymore, just MPC. A minor annoyance, but enough for me to knock the newer versions off a point.
   
   If anyone can figure out how to have K-Lite set file associations for WMP, or can offer some info as to why the change (or if this is in fact a program thing and not just my own PC) then please do comment. (My thinking is it's M$ and the DMCA goons out to "protect" its proprietary media player from playing FOSS codecs and copy-protected DVDs, and appease the 1% Big Media types who don't like the idea of XviD rips and ubiquitous mp3s. But that's just IMHO.)
   
   Otherwise 4/5 -- 3.5/5, actually, for bundling the (optional) toolbar with the installer. It always dismays me to see great apps go the ad-supported direction. But still a great bundle (for now) despite the new slides towards crippleware.

   EDIT: Am updating my review to reflect that K-Lite Mega DOES in fact allow you to set file associations for WMP. For some reason it wouldn't work under XP x64, but does under Windows 7 x64 (the 64-bit edition doesn't do that, but the 32-bit Mega pack does). 4.5/5 (half a point off) for the toolbar, even though it's optional and easily deselected. Thanks to @CodecPack for alerting me :)

   Avoid tl307, the downloads are not current & tl307 is a spammer.

   All car purchases start with one decision: New or used? With automakers selling hundreds of new models, and more used cars than there are people to drive them, there are plenty of good vehicles out there ready for an owner and driver.

   It's compatible with Windows 7, 32bit. Flawless!

   You're joking, right ? Compatibility with Windows 7 ? It's barely even safe to call it a beta product and won't be available for years and you expect compatibility ? Yeah, right.
