There are one of two scenarios that work and I saw both played out lots of time when I worked at msft: 1) Weedshare got caught up in a deliberate "embrace and exterminate" tactic either as a victim of cross-feifdom rivalry or other cross-purpose strategy or 2) simple, stupid incompetence in the Media Player group simply didn't bother with compat testing against Weedshare.
not to be ..paranoid..but maybe msft is coming up with their own "weedshare"..to which certain previous things would be sorta..incompatible...$$$ wise.

this is the risk when adding DRM to files. ever tried to open an iTunes song in Ableton Live for example.
DRM is a serious music-killer.
