Because Microsoft seems to sometimes not trust customer choice, they salt XP with all these little gizmos and trap doors to get people to try Microsoft stuff. But the reality is that we're downloading more players than we ever have on a worldwide basis.

Summary

This quote suggests that Microsoft purposely added extra features and hidden features within Windows XP to persuade users to try their own products. However, it highlights that despite these tactics, people are now downloading more third-party software or applications from different providers around the world than ever before. This implies that despite Microsoft's efforts, customers still prefer the freedom of choice and are more inclined to explore alternative options.
