TSGL: Media Player ain't workin' and won't leave

I wouldn't delete any Media Player folders Chuck. I think MP is tightly 
integrated with Windows just like IE. Microsoft has been going around 
with the EU (European Union) about this for the last couple of years. 
The EU wants MS to decouple MP and supply it separately so other media 
players will be on an equal footing. Not sure just where the dispute is 
right now though. Even if you don't want to use it I would just let it be.
