I am using v9.00.0159b. The fonts are still non-changeable.

I have never tried the radio function with MM. In the past I had
set up a station and also listened to net radio with Winamp which
worked fine. 
At present, I am mostly into burning audio cd's. I had always used
Nero for this but once I tried MM, I switched and never looked back.
I also sprung 20 bucks for the sound enhancement plugin module
for MM. It really makes a difference!

There is only one problem I have had with version 9, but it is
just an annoyance. I can only start it if I open a music file first
with it. If I try to start it with a shortcut, it crashes. I
have never looked into why because I usually only start it by opening
a music file anyway. It is my guess without researching the
problem that something got a little whacked in the upgrade process.

This v9 seems to be less of a resource hog too.
