I'm seriously hoping that it isn't in the RC version, or we will soon have the European Union filing a anti-trust lawsuit against Microsoft for blocking third-party codecs on Windows Media Player/Media Center.
This is also the case while Vista was in beta and people feared that the DRM in Vista would not allow them to play non-drm'd music and video files.
Just note that this only affects Windows Media Player and Media Center, not third party programs that use directshow.
