Microsoft's new version of its popular Media Player software is logging the songs and movies that customers play.
The company said Wednesday it was changing its privacy statement to notify customers about the technology after inquiries from The Associated Press.
The system creates a list on each computer that could be a treasure for marketing companies, lawyers or others. Microsoft says it has no plans to sell the data collected by Media Player 8, which comes free with the Windows XP operating system.
