Yahoo Launches Its iTunes/Napster Alternative

Reply #25
Well I installed it on a seldom used Windows 2000 SP4. So seldom used in fact, that I had to download IE 6 and WMP 9 before it would even install.

Installation went fine, but operation is another story all together. It starts up fine (although it takes it's time, I think Photoshop CS opens quicker...) but as soon as you try to click on any UI element, the whole window deactivates and doesn't allow anything at all to be clicked. Even clicking the close box gives no response. Choosing Exit from the tray icon results in it completely dying, as such:

The only thing I can think of is that I'm running it in VPC, but I seriously doubt that would cause any issues (all other software runs fine)

Concept is nice by the looks of it but my god, talk about -rushed-

I haven't tried or seen Yahoo music, but somewhere I read that Yahoo bought Musicmatch and its the basic engine for the new service.
