Funny that you say that because I have XP Media Center edition on my PC, and I can't left click an mpeg file on a webpage and get it to play. I have to right click and download the entire file before I can play it, whereas with WMV it buffers for a few seconds and then starts playing, although you can't skip around the video until it's 100% downloaded.
My understanding is that my problem is common amongst media center users, no matter which version of windows media we're using....I wonder how many surfers out there are having this problem and prefer wmv?
