1. I have been testing the update today and I have to say it's a huge improvement. More thoughts as I test it. Re: Media Server, what do you mean who else is doing this I think you've posted about Rhapsody and must know they have had UPnP for a while. This update definitely solidifies YMU as #2 in my book. About time they leveraged their MusicMatch talent.

2. How do you know customer service is more responsive?

3. Customer sercvice is faster but the tech support refuses to resd the information contained in the 3 emails I have sent on my latest problems with ME. Refering me th do exactly what I wrote I already did.When it works it is great but.......

4. Another BIG improvement: The slipstream mini skin. You can have the album art, track/album/artist ratings displayed or hidden. It's bigger than the kimino mini, but the ability to rate on the fly, without switching to full mode, is a plus. Still can't add a track to "my music" without switching to full mode - hopefully that will be added in another upgrade.

5. Anyone been having trouble with their podcasts? Seems like version 1.1 has a problem downloading them.

6. Does anybody know if the upgrade is for Canadian users also (i'm not sure if we get a different version up here)

7. I tried to copy my Yahoo music files to a new hard drive in the same machine. I was going to then delete the files on the c drive. However now I can not play any of the files on the c or the new drive. The player locks up. I also can not play anything exect radio on the pplayer. I can not download any music it just says connecting then locks up. I have reinstalled 3 times and tried uninstalling then reinstalling. Any ideas I emailed yahoo but no reply yet. Thanks

8. The only other reason that we would have to overwrite a WMP setting is to make sure that the protected content is acquiring the licenses that it needs in order to stream.

Other than that, like Ian says, it sounds like a bug.

9. Too bad my upgrade now hangs whenever I connect to a song I haven't downloaded already. :( Plus I know I'm like one of 7 people who listen to classical music on here, but can we seriously get a Composer search? Oh, and sorting by DATE ADDED might be nice too.

10. This has got to be the WORST excuse for an application that I have ever used. And the kicker is they have the balls to charge for this! When you submit your computer to an "upgrade" that afterwards cannot find the files it supposedly installed and keeps telling you, you need to upgrade, it gets ridiculous. If I ran my network like this at work, I would be out of a job by now. But I know most users will be told it's their system by the Yahoo frontline script readers...live and learn!

11. I loved the previous version of the player but whenever I try to upgrade to the new player on my lab computer the system hangs and crasahes. I have upgraded my home computer and l;aptop with no issues. All are running XP proi.

12. can anyone help me with a yahoo music problem? there is no, i repeat no, yahoo phone tech support for their music service and i rarely get an email reply either.

since the 'upgrade' i am unable to use the service at all...the site comes up as ok, but i cannot listen to any music, dowload anything, etc. occaisonally i'll get a 'need license' error message but i'm logged in and the site acknowledges my subscription. i've been waiting for an email response from them for two days now...very frustrating to not have service and have no way of contacting the vendor.

13. I'm having problems with the service locking up. I purchased an album for download and it locked up and never responded. They charged my credit card and I still don't have the music. *sits around pissed off waiting for customer service to contact her*

14. The new Yahoo Music upgrade to Version 1.1 is very buggy and problematic. I enjoy listening to their streaming music, but frequently there are long pauses and gaps in the middle of individual songs. I have optimized my computer for music playing, but it doesn't help. I have also eliminated virtually all programs running in the background, and that doesn't help either. This is very frustrating. I should've kept the old version installed.
Does anyone else have this problem? Yahoo Music Customer Support is terrible to nonexistent, so there's no use even trying to get their help on this. I'm about ready to quit the Yahoo Music service unless I can get this resolved.

15. I have version 1.1 loaded on both of my PC's and also have a Roku sound bridge. i have been unable to get ROKU to play back DRM files using the Yahoo engine. I connect and play back just fine with WMP-10. I reported the probelm to Yahoo and they say the problem is in WMP-10. Hmmmm? That's a tough sell. Roku's people say they have never tested YME 1.1 and don't know anything about connecting using the built in network manager.

16. I have the same experience since upgrading. It locks up after a couple of minutes. I have not been able to sync my MP3 player and licenses for my music. So basically I'm stuck.

17. Having similiar problems with the upgrade- songs hang unless they have been previously downloaded... Have received several emails from tech support, none of which have been helpful. My last email to Yahoo was sent several days ago with no response. My subscription is up in May, with this latest string of problems, I have to consider switching to another music provider. Too bad, I was fairly happy prior to this latest bug.

18. Search function in 1.1 only provides up to 100 results. 1.0 search gave several hundred results. This is a real downer in my opinion.

19. I purchased yahoo music in september and have over 400 songs on my computer for it. I bought an mp3 player in march and all my songs went on to it from yahoo. It worked fine for about a month and all of a sudden, all my songs on the mp3 player say no license and won't play, and yahoo music doesn't play songs on my computer, I don't mean I just can't download new songs, I can't even play old songs I've downloaded. Its very frustrating.
