Should I upgrade to Media Player 10?

[Sasquatch]

I've been running MP 8 and hadn't upgraded to MP 9 due to the controversy I'd read about. But lately I've been unable to open any online links to .mpv files and haven't been able to figure out why, so I have to do something.

Is Media Player 10 stable? Any pros and cons to it?

Here's the link to WMP v9: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/9series/player.aspx

If you opt to download v10, read the list of 10's issues here:

I'm sticking with v9 for a bit

I hadn't upgraded to WMP 9 because of the reported "phone home" features, but I guess WMP 8 had them too. I don't play DVD's though so I guess it doesn't really matter in my case.

Thanks for the links.
