Anyway to paste urls into a media player?

Is there anyway to paste urls into a media player?
I have windows media player and TCPMP neither allows me to paste a url.
I can type a URL but that is a pain in a*&

Any ideas?

Select the URL you want to paste, then using the on-screen keyboard, tap Ctrl+C. Next, open Windows Media, enter the "Open URL" interface, select the URL field, and using the on-screen keyboard, tap Ctrl+V. If all is done correctly, the copy-and-paste operation should be successful.

I've just tested it and it definitely works.

KeithAlso pasting an mms:// url in PIE should automatically start up media player.
