Vista is strange OS, excellent in so many areas, but overall package always missing the point somehow.
Media Foundation is similar, why in the earth would you like to switch from DirectShow and broad XP support by paying hefty fee of C++ developers time to upgrade to newer Media Foundation Vista specific?
On first look it seems like Curse Of Vista, simply all Vista specific things didn't really enter developers main stream.
So here it is, new Windows 7 Media Foundation.
I've read few "what's new"s like this one:

and I'm still not convinced that I should spend a minute by upgrading to it.
But there is a possibility that Course of Vista will transcend to something like Bless of Windows 7, so stay tuned for reports from real life, mainly performance upgrades.
