I've refused to "upgrade" my Windows 7 laptop so far, mainly because f'n Microsoft REMOVED Windows DVD Maker. I guess they figure no one should want to burn 480p resolution video anymore. As if all (great-)grandparents should by now have ditched their DVD players in favor of Surface tablets, smart TVs, 100 mbps Internet and YouTube?

But the real head scratcher: Windows 10 also lacks the ability to even play DVDs. (WTF?!)

DVD maker stinks. There’s dozens of free apps for doing that much better. Same with playing DVDs, any halfway decent media player does that better than the stuff MS bundled.

People complain about the bloat in Windows, then they complain when the bloat gets removed.
