Yes it does, if you installed it to be able to play DVDs. That's quite an improvement. 
I don't think I should have to install a whole new player application if I just want to watch a DVD on my PC and I'm already used to watching all my videos in WMP. 
Well, but that's my point... Why using the lacking interface of WMP (and the bad rendering and all) when you have installed a specific dedicated program to play DVD's in the first place. The added option in WMP to see DVD's when you install PowerDVD for example, is nothing more then that, a quick crude option to quickly review something on a DVD (in bad quality) or something.
(This is indeed something MS should sort out with own good and decent codecs or something. But licenses, rights, copyrighted stuff, etc are the things which prevent this I think; hence you need to "buy" the codecs if you don't want to install another 3rd party application (which you need to buy also in most cases))
