[QUOTE="and-81, post: 252922, member: 11844"] The "Anti-Microsoft" part wasn't directed at you :) I was loathe to mention it because it can unfairly place people with genuine arguments into the same box as people who don't know anything about the differences but go with a gut feeling of anti-Microsoft sentiment. I didn't mean to use it to belittle your position on the matter. I'm sorry if it seemed that it was directed at you. That may be true for large-scale database users, but in regards to MediaPortal, the whole database debate is a waste of time... MediaPortal is not a "big" database user. MS SQL and MySQL are both more than up to the job and the differences between the two are utterly negligible in this context. In the future (Read: MediaPortal 2) we will not be dividing our efforts by supporting multiple databases, in fact we'll be avoiding this issue completely. I'm not sure if I should say any more than that at this stage, I don't want to make statements about it without team approval, suffice to say that MS SQL versus MySQL will not be relevant ... eventually. Cheers, [/QUOTE]
