Yahoo! Music Jukebox Plus

Yahoo replaced the MusicMatch Jukebox with a WMP 11 based player which shares the same audio problems as Microsoft's product. Don't expect the same clear audio as MusicMatch had and don't expect much support from them either.

Now owned by Yahoo, so that means no tech support. My older registered version stopped working and would not uninstall or reinstall, could not install the new version 10. Will not finish installing. Tech support no help. Rumor has it that it has something to do with installing IE7, but I'm not giving that up for MMJB.

I had Music Match 7.5 running for about 5 years with no problem at all, then on Sunday morning, it refused to start, so I decided it was time for an upgrade, I downloaded and installed version 10, and it seemed to go well until the load up/splash screen playing the mmjbstart.wav then it aborts 2 seconds later. Trying to restart it just does the same, thing, aborts 2 seconds into the splash screeen.
I uninstalled it, loaded up version 9, that got past the start screen, but kept getting an unknown error and had to close. Even though I could play my music files behind the error dialog box.
So that version was removed. I even tried the original 7.5 install file I used 5 years ago, That refused to even install, crashing twice during the installation. Version 8.5 was also frelling useless. The only version that would work was 8.2 but it had so many options that I'd never use and the upgrade key from my previous version didn't work so I couldn't access the Plus features.
My opinion, it should of been Beta tested for a hell of a lot longer than it was, if at all!!
MMJB now SUCKS!! Someone called it Bloatware and I totally agree. Version 7.5 was less than 10mb, now its been inflated to 25mb. Way to go MM!! NOT!!
