[Dixielandjazz] ITunes was Another Voice on Music Security

[Larry Walton Entertainment - St. Louis]

I'm not too thrilled with Itunes.  I have an Ipod and it works great with 
it.  Almost immediately I started having trouble with my other MP3 players 
on my computer when I installed it.  I made the mistake of telling Itunes to 
be the default player.  Now it seems that I can't change it back and my 
other MP3 players won't work. (Quick Time player, Music Match and Real 
Player)  I can get Quick time player to work by opening an MP3 file but it 
won't play internet tunes automatically   I wouldn't care a whole lot but 
now when I try to play something from the internet it won't play it.

Again I wouldn't care a whole bunch but I can't manage my web site because 
the MP3's won't play.  Anyone had that problem or better still know how to 
fix it?
