    Ok so I am playing Jedi Knight I online. My mediaplayer finds the name of a song I am listening to if I want it to or not when I am online. So the music is playing in the game. I quit the game and then I notice a new playlist in my mediaplayer. I listen to it and it is the music from the game. But the names are well... very odd. Not G rated. The name of one was "die ************ die." [face_plain] [face_shocked]

    Has this happened to anyone else?

    It happened to the NZ Opera recently.

    Media player pulls its tracks from a database submitted by the public. If someone types an incorrect tracklisting, and it never gets corrected, when you pull up Media Player, the incorrect (sometimes offensive) tracklisting will display.

    I'll dig out a link for the NZ Opera story.

    Ahh. NZSO.

    Porn spin shocks NZSO


    Notice how everyone in the article fails to grasp how it happened. "Hacker", "Techno Wizz Kid"...

    Uhh, no. Just the first person to play the promo CD through media player uploaded bogus track names to the central database.
