And all of that _just_ for watching the video? If you want to watch a music-video that desperately that you put it into frames and watch it as a slideshow... with that music, then two things come up in my head:
1. Why did you buy it in the first place?
2. Watch it on your Mac (or whatever)!

You amaze me, sometimes. So you *know* that it won't play video - only sound (unless you install some kind of linux) - but ignore that and will download a music video for exactly the task it _won't_ do? I think you're just here to mess with geeks' minds, sending them into endless loops or something...

LMAO!

Who? Lil' ol' me?

This was definitely the most funny thing you've ever written. I'm at a public hotspot at the moment, and I literally BURST out laughing when I read it. Thank you for that.

Well, your strange sense of logic certainly was enough inspiration.

But nobody has actually verified that this update doesn't enable video playback. Seems unlikely, I'll admit, but it's possible. It would be strange to have the playlist there otherwise; if it's just intended for audio playback, why would you even want the music videos separated?
