I think a compliment is enough to merit thread necromancy :P

Ahh, a 2-month bump doesn't even really count as a thread necromancy anyway IMO. (Though it's nice to see Keen-Vile there being used... :crazy )

Really? It's a really old QuickTime format, though...

On Windows, QuickTime is a PAIN and no-one cares to learn anything about it. On Mac it's a bit dated given iTunes.

On Linux - up to the distro.

iTunes is powered by Quicktime.

Yeah, I do know that, like Media Player relied on MPlayer2 for a long time. But how often do you use QuickTime if you have iTunes on your mac?

It's neither quick, nor timely. The only time I use it is when playing Duke 2's cinematics files.

Nonsense. QT was pretty much a necessity on the earlier Windows days for some games. Well, for a bunch of Sierra games, anyway. And Septerra Core. And a few other games like those. You get my point; QuickTime would usually be installed on us gamers' machines, even if it only were to be able to view the cinematics or hear the sounds in some games.

Um, I use Quicktime ALL THE TIME to open files to listen to them. It's a lot simpler than iTunes, as well as more minimalist. I don't need to wait for iTunes to start up when I can just pop Quicktime right up.

I'd frequently get pissed off at it taking all the ram and file associations and then bugging me to buy pro - it was on there for Shivers, but I didn't want it on there! I didn't say no-one installed it, just saying that I know many people who never really bothered with it :P

And THC, I stand corrected :foot But you're hardly the typical computer user :crazy

This is what I was going to say, so I guess that I correct you again kuliwil.

Actually, I usually just listen to mp3s, MIDIs, and the like right in their folder, with some cool Finder feature. Don't know whether that's Quicktime-powered or just the Core Audio system process. 8)

Kuliwil: yeah, okay, fair enough. But the file format is even mentioned in its configuration thing that it forces into the control panel and all that, and I'm sure a fair amount of people opened up that panel at least out of curiosity.

My Win2K machine has that from a patch of Windows Media Player...

ANYWAY I might actually finish this song sometime, as well as clean it up a bit.
