OT: MC is a drug.
« on: August 22, 2003, 10:30:42 am »
Well, after being a convert from Winamp, I have to say, I have become addicted to MC.

Every morning, the first thing I will do is open browser, surf to Interact in hope of having a new build to play with. And I will do that throughout the day even though I know the chance of getting a new build that day will goes down as the day went by as I am staying at the other side of the planet (Aus).

Hoping that I am not the only addict around here, I ask all who are addicted to downloading new builds of MC to post your experience of addiction here.

Look for the ones who post quickly on the beta boards after a release. Then make a mental note to never lend them money.

Me too.  I often get up in the middle of the night just to check if there's been a new build.  As far as my wife's concerned I'm off for a drink of milk!  Before discovering MC I always turned my pc off after use but now I leave it on all the time so I can get to interact quicker.  My missus thinks I just keep forgetting to turn it off!

I guess I got it bad.

Like the ones who notice that the thread for the old build has been locked and then press the refresh button every 3 seconds?

Aye, I swear, every time I see a new build posted with 0 replies, I just want to jump on it with a quick reply that says nothing but

"WOOT!!!"

:D

i dont mess with the betas much, still mc remains a drug,  rare its not running nearly 24/7, and it organizes the music so well, im always rushing to add more files to the count. lol

It is a good drug.  :)  

Quick note to the JRiver crew: you guys are doing a bang up job.  The 9.1 beta is really starting to come together.  Keep up the good work.

I really want to use this product all of the time.  I've been using the latest betas and they seem to be getting more stable.  I think this *will* be a great product once the bugs are worked out. The features are great as well as the UI.  

This will be the product to beat once it's more stable and polished. Awesome job so far though.
