Install Media Player on vista business N?

I got a license for vista business N, and i'm trying to install media player.
However, it doesn't allow me, saying not a genuine license, or just not a
valid download to... can someone aid me?

Only when WMP 11 for Vista appears on the Microsoft download site.
Currently the only downloads for WMP 11 are for XP and Windows Server 2003.
