Don't really play songs that much and so that "feature" doesn't really matter much to me I actually wanted it for the shared folder feature because Quid and I throw a lot of files back and forth and while it's not too much of a problem to open Explorer (or replacement of choice), browse to the network share (or NAS) and plunk in the file and ask her to get it at her end, it's much more easier if it sits somewhere on MSNM (or WLM as the new TLA goes ) and automatically synchronizes when I make a change to the document. It seems to work OK though a bit slow ... haven't seen yet if it auot-synchronizes though ...

I do hate the fact that all file sharing is now on the shared folder feature. That sucks a bit - I wanted WLM to have both one time file transfers and shared folders ... Ah well ...

Basically, all your file transfers are either via shared folders or not. There is no middle ground If you turn shared folders on, then all your files are sent via shared folders and any changes you do to the document at this end (if you modify the copy in the shared folder - which is another gripe altogether ) get synchronized with the other person you're sharing the document with. If you delete the file at this end, it gets deleted at the other end too. If you don't turn shared folders on, then I assume file transfers are done the normal way as per MSNM 7.x ...
