This is tempting... but, there is one problem that makes me want to hold off just a bit. Here's what's included in the installation instructions for Windows 7 Beta:
To protect your MP3 files:
- Before you install this Beta release, back up all MP3 files that might be accessed by the computer, including those on removable media or network shares.
- Install the Beta release of Windows 7; download and install the Update to Windows 7 Beta (KB961367) located on this page.
I better check into this a little bit more before jumping into installing the Windows 7 Beta. At this time, it may be more hassle than I need. Many times all compressed audio is referred to as MP3s. I'll need to learn if this also includes WMA Lossless, FLACs or just real MP3s. Since I don't have that many MP3s, it's not as much a hassle, but nevertheless it is something that warrants a little more investigation. I just have never seen this sort of warning for an OS install and I'm really curious why this is needed.
