Just wondering if any one is having any problems getting windows media player to recognize Backspacer as Backspacer and not Pearl Jam Pearl Jam? I want to upload it to my ZUNE. It plays the Backspacer tracks but still shows up as PJ PJ, so it won't load onto my computer properly. Any ideas.
Thanks,
Dave

    that happened to me too, yup.

    I guess you'll have to manually search for album info (right click over the image of where the album cover should be) and go to find album info and search for backspacer.

    That seemed to work for me, but yeah, it should do that on its own.
    One of the many annoyances of wmp/zune.

    It pisses me off to no end why the Zune software isn't just built in to media player (like a new tab or something). Basically, you have to have two separate pieces of software to do virtually the same thing (and it's from the same god damned developer), two separate libraries, two sets of playlists, etc etc.

    Also, the zune software is a gong-show. This last update took me about three hours to sort through because I'm from Canada so I had to change a bunch of things in order to get it to accept the terms of service.

    I'm really tempted to just scrap it all and get a frickin i-pod

    this is clearly apple sabotaging pj fans who use windows

    there should be a new commercial with the big, nerdy windows guy and the indifferent, cool mac guy about this issue
    "...what a different life had i not found this love with you..."

    happened to me too.

    .....probably because they are almost the same dissapointing albums. Though S/T is
    a little longer and has at least two solid songs: Life-Wasted, Severed Hand, and a few more
    that I won't skip over.

    My friend had the same problem, seems to be windows media player being retarded. Works fine in Winamp.
