First of all, your subject is just a bit melodramatic. To have grave doubts about something like this is taking things a bit too seriously. Second, you have to realize what perspective the support people are coming from. Most people haven't invested a great deal of time in their player settings and are most interested in getting their music playing ASAP. Digging around in log files is the LAST thing most people calling support want to do. They want it fixed, and they want it fixed an hour ago. For most people, doing a clean install is the FASTEST way to resolve a problem and get their music playing again. For those that have other priorities there are certainly other options available to them and you have done well for yourself -- congratulations. Ben
