Any known problems with Windows Media Player 9??

Before I download & install Windows Media Player 9 from Windows Update, I was just wondering if there were any known issues with it currently. All I use it for basically is playing MP3's.

Thanks

i downloaded this today, i must say its quite nice, lots of new stuff in it, and it plays mp3s good, havent had a problem whatsoever and its been running constantly for about 5 or 6 hous now. pretty nice feature is that you can speed up and slow down the music, found that funny for 10 minutes or so!

oh yea and if you minimize it, you have the choice of putting a mini media player on the right of the taskbar. All in all i like it a lot better than 8
