Amazing info - thanks (I have a lot to learn...).

But I'm still curious about why WMP chose to offer me a Beethoven piece.
Surely it doesn't do that for everyone. This is a new install and I don't
see what info there could be on the system that would allow it to guess
that I am a Beethoven kind of person.

I suppose I had played a classical CD (Schubert), but I used the
"AvRack" RealTek player that was sitting on the desktop for that.
