All I can say is users have asked for all these changes and additions. MTU is one of the very few software companies that listen to their users and try to give them what they want. And it isn't just one person requesting, but when a group of users add their posts that they want it too.
Why use WMP for your DJ music between karaoke sets when Hoster can also handle this and the next upgrade will make handling these even better. MTU is trying to help us do both DJ and KJ duties with the least amount of hassles.
Look at this way if you have to buy a new computer it will most likely be Windows 7 or Vista and both of those come with WMP 11 installed. I am not crazy about WMP 11 myself, but on my show computer it is installed but never opened. This keeps its footprint (processor time down to a minimum. If you open it then it sets up its network service and starts trying to catalog all the music on your computer.....yech!!
As far as fixing the problem I don't think there is anyway, because Hoster is asking WMP 9 to do something it doesn't know how to do. WMP 10 & 11 handle this just fine, but I am not sure you can find WMP 10 anymore.
