Here's the exact quote out of a patch install on a WMP 6.4 box

My understanding would be that if they want to they can erase your MP3's keep you from burning any more or copying. And also disable any media player that they want to. And like the article above states they amy even infect you with a virus. They released a supplemental disk to Korea .net developers that had nimda imbeded in it. I wonder what the Department of Justice will have to say because Microshaft could use this to disable Realplayer, and MusicMatch Jukebox if they wanted to.
