By 2006, the MAM software I wrote in 1988 was clearly showing its age: the hardware required to run it was no longer being sold, it couldn't run under the current Microsoft operating system ... so I decided to rewrite it from scratch.

The MAMPlayer incorporated many of the display modes I'd experimented with over the years, and was distributed free on my website.

I was gratified that users figured out ways to capture the audio and video from the MAMPlayer so that they could make their own movies to put on YouTube.
