Microsoft urges customers with Windows Media Player to move to movies and TV. this is likely due to the fact, that it will no longer be in Windows 10.
Microsoft once called Google Chrome users to switch to Microsoft Edge - as it "faster and increases the battery life". Now users Windows 10 another transition may be proposed, but this time on a different product from the same manufacturer.
One user posted a screen Reddita, which shows, как во время запуска устаревшей уже программы Windows Media Player на экране появляется предложение запустить приложение ” Фильмы и ТВ (Movies & TV), which is installed by default with Windows 10. It comes with numerous benefits: the support of various formats, lower power consumption, to support video 360 degrees.
We have to admit, that Windows Media Player the best of times is actually already behind us (as Paint can already go on a well-deserved retirement). At the same time, it is worth noting that Movies and TV is a truly promising application. And, Microsoft solution, seems more than reasonable.
Based on the foregoing unwittingly come to the conclusion that the company refuses to Windows Media Player, because 1) it makes no sense to provide two different applications and 2) it and so do not develop over time.
Returning to the subject of the article is worth noting, that promoting one’s own solutions does not cause such controversy as in the case Edge и Chrome. Despite this competition also have a fairly advanced players, such as:
- VLC;
- Media Player Classic Home Cinema;
- ALLPlayerze and other.
