Then we're arguing different things.  ;^)

I'm simply arguing that the patent seems more broadly scoped than some
people seem to be claiming and affects much more MS technology (indeed
more general technology) than just IE.

I'm pretty sure that you're correct about integration of Media Player -
but it would, of course have to be an "IE that plays media" because
integrating the MS Media Player application seems like it would fall
under the patents scope.

It's a syntactical nightmare...
