The famous media player produced by Microsoft also known as Windows Media Player is out of beta stage, it's now on version 11 and has some features to compete with the Apple media player also known as iTunes.

The most notable addition is the inclusion of Urge (a MTV product) that is like an online music store with songs going from $0.99 each or $9.99 per album, which is the same prices that the rival iTunes offers. One extra feature that iTunes doesn't offer and the Urge does, is the unlimited downloads that cost $9.95 per month, so next time you want to buy a mp3 song just get the whole-month access instead of the unique/album mp3s and you will save some money.

Media Player 11 also has a few new bells and whistles for Windows users, including an audio fingerprinting capability that can recognize mislabeled media files, better search capabilities, and an easier-to-use navigation system.
