        Yeah, I think I will write...that he is 100% correct in every one
of his observations...:) Don't get me wrong, I like MPlayer as well, but
for different reasons than most users. But I'm confident that we will
eventually bring MPlayer up to a more generally-usable level. Maybe
MPlayer should have a big banner on its main web page that reads:

"WARNING: MPLAYER IS STILL ALPHA-LEVEL SOFTWARE!"
