I would switch to win7.
Not because it's so great. It's just that Vista is so bad.
If you have below 4 GB Ram stick with XP.
Just my personal opinion.Please like Pocket Radio Player on Facebook to support this little Freeware app.

To put it into a nutshell:
- performance is horrible
- menus are spread like mines in a minefield. It means you need 3 times more mouseclicks to reach the same stuff under XP.
- memory usage: the services loaded by default are wasting memory a lot. Even worse, even when the user is not needing them (DVD Burner, WiFI connection, indexing, etc,)
- brainless DRM implementation
- the UAC is nagging you constantly with useless warnings

memory usage- like xp doesnt had bunch a useless services loaded? All windows have them.
Win7 have even worst DRM implementation.
UAC is stupid but u can disable it for 5 seconds.
- performance is horrible - how so? I never noticed that.
