The right music for the moment

In the Music section, you can quickly browse the entire music library by artist, song, or

album title, as well as by genre, composer, or year. Windows Media Center automatically

downloads thumbnails of album art, giving you a very visual way to find the albums that

you want to hear. You can shuffle and repeat your music, create playlists, apply

visualizations, and burn playlists to CD or DVD with the push of a button.

You can also start a picture slide show directly from your music library when you are

selecting or playing your music. If you subscribe to music services, you can now add this

option directly to the Start menu, next to the Music Library.

It is easy to search for and add music to your library from another Windows-based

computer in your home.

Playing Internet radio

Windows Media Center can also play Internet radio. You can access various Internet

radio Web sites.

Sharing your digital memories

With Windows Media Center, you can turn your simple photo collection into a cinematic

slide show that can be shared on the computer or the television in the living room. The Play

All option on the Start menu enables a full slide show of photos at the click of a button, and

you can even enjoy the slide show with music from your music collection for a truly

memorable experience.

If you want to create a slide show with a soundtrack, you can easily create a playlist of

photos and music to burn to DVD.

NOTE: If your computer came with a rewritable DVD drive, the drive is able to read

and record to DVD+/-R/-RW media.
