Dear Jean-Claude, I'm more than happy to discuss the relationship between the Open Source /Free Software movement and the Open Access movement with you, but I suspect Stevan would object to our doing so on the AMSCI mailing list. In answer to your specific question: if you want to access Windows Media Player files on the Linux platform what you can do is try Mplayer, which can be downloaded at: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/info.html.

I will try Mplayer. And you are right: Stevan would not allow discussion on free software on AmSci, but I would tend to agree with him on that point. Thanks again.
