This is your Tech Tidbits Daily from TechNewsRadio.com for Thursday, June 2nd, 2005.  A proud member of the TechPodcasts.com network.

Today’s podcast is a pointer to a "thank you" from Microsoft. If you are a Windows XP user then you might want to check out a new digital media experience tool released by Microsoft called Windows Media Bonus Pack for Windows XP.

I quote from the website: "As a special ‘thanks’ for fans of the Windows XP digital media experience, we offer the PowerToys, visualizations, skins, sound effects, and much more, the free Windows Media Bonus Pack installs on your Windows XP-based PC and lets your personality and creativity shine." The download is about 18.2-MBs.

This is a subset of features from Microsoft Plus.  Some of them that look handy: convert MP3s to WMA; playlist import from Excel; Metadata Update Wizard; TDK Mixmaster skin; and Windows Movie Maker with sounds from SoundDogs.com.
