the thing is, when I want to listen to music. I want to listen to friggin music. I don't want to download 5 podcasts without it even telling me, I don't want advertisements for mediocre hip-hop CDs, and I don't want a GIANT friggin window, where only a tiny bar at the top is committed to actually playing my music. As ZF said, I don't want a pop-up asking me if I want to update iTunes (which is annoying enough) only to find that in order to update, I have to download safari.
Also, WMP has a unique feature. If you have it activated, you can minimize it and be able to play, pause, fast forward, adjust volume, etc. on the toolbar. That way, if you want to skip a song, you don't have to bring up a window that fills up half the screen at it's smallest size every single time.

EDIT: @Mino: That I do. What of it?
