No Easy way?? Program files and settings migration to Windows 7 from XP!

This baffles me. So many people are upgrading to Windows 7 and sure there's a Easy File Transfer Wizard, but what about all the program settings to name a few:
- Windows Media Player files, libraries
- Firefox plugins and add-ons
- Windows Media Player Star Ratings
- Outlook settings
- Blackberry Desktop settings and information and backips
- uTorrent settings
- Logitech Mouse Settings
- ... etc

Not sure if I should create a virtual system or use ThinApp?

Any good free or paid applications or guides to help with this?

Also a tip for those upgrading, use Ninite for easy installations. :)
