Rhapsody has pirated my music files!?

I don't want rhapsody as my default music player. I like the free music, but I want to play the stuff I already have in Windows Media Player. How do I change the default back to WMP?

Update:

I'm using Windows XP, and if I right click on the file it doesn't say "open with", it just says "play with media player".

    The file association has changed. Here's how to fix, for WinXP

    Note - play with is first choice on the menu. OPEN WITH is about the 6th option below

    To associate a file with a program

    Open My Computer.

    Double-click a drive or folder.

    Right-click a file type you want to change, like whatever.mp3, and then click Open With, then select Choose Program, and select Media Player. be sure to check the box at bottom to Always use this program for this type of file.

    Repeat for other music file types.

    you're windows media player should have options! But fyi all peer to peer subinstallers take you're downloade music and post them on the sights. I use Limewire(100% FREE)every song I download is posted on the sight, you can still listen to it on you're media player though.

    Right click one of your music files > "open with" > "choose program" ... after you choose windows media ... "check" "always use this program"
