Can I use windows Media Player on Windows server 2008? If I can't, is there an alternative to play music for windows server 2008?

Hi, You can use Media Player, for this you have to install Desktop Experience feature on your Windows Server 2008.

Hi, If you use Windows Server 2008, the Desktop Experience feature enables you to install a variety of Windows Vista features. If you use Windows Server 2008 R2, it installs some Windows 7 features. Both of them can install Windows Media Player. Please refer to: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772567(WS.10).aspx Regards, Bruce
