| Hi, Just to add to this mix, many Windows iTunes users don't realize Quicktime is part of iTunes so actually asking people about it is often a useless endeavor. I'm an Apple consultant, but I work on Windows too and adding iTunes is very much part of my configuration scheme for Windows users. Still, all the other MM players out there (winamp/WMP/REAL...etc) like to compete for the opportunity of "default" content player. Generally this isn't a problem, but I have seen people failing to load some qt content in their chosen player, or get mime problems in a browser simply because the choice is not that obvious on some Windows machines. This is a problem- kind of like the Browser Wars. Still, helping Windows users use Quicktime is a good thing and can only lead people to acquiring more Apple products. What I think is missed about Quicktime, in general, is that it really works pretty well on both platforms and makes the portability of content less reliant on an OS environment. It is often considered Apple on Windows. Many Windows IT departments, for instance, prevented Quicktime from being installed until the CEO tried to plug in his or her ipod. I think the QT platform is growing, in the usual Apple way, by stealth operations. -ben |
