Windows Media Center gets laid to rest, won't appear in Windows 10

[Windows Central]

While development had stopped for Windows Media Center back in 2009, users were holding hope that it may make a comeback in Windows 10. Microsoft confirmed to ZDNet that Windows Media Center is indeed finished, and users who upgrade to Windows 10 will no longer see it.

Full story from the WindowsCentral blog...

Nuuu! I liked WMC, sad to see it go

For what I used it for, it worked well for me; especially loading files on an SD card. Hope the replacement is more versatile than this was.

I'm a cord cutter, and I've been using Media Center for years now to watch local TV with a TV tuner. I've paid for the 8.1 Pro Pack to get Media Center.

If I cannot find another solution for my local TV viewing, this will be the first time ever that I don't upgrade Windows. I have always upgraded on release date.

Thanks Microsoft for alienating a loyal and longterm desktop Windows user!
