Plagiarising consists of putting things in a "similar place" ? Are you
asleep ? How many potential places *are* there in a player skin to put
playback controls ffs ?


I have both OSX and Vista and XP systems here, and I can assure you
that side-by-side, none of those WMP skins look even ~accidentally~
like QT/OSX brushed steel skin - put your glasses on.
