So, I installed this and then unceremoniously erased the Windows Media Player application. It plays the sample Windows Media File just fine in Quicktime. Yay.
Only problem is, what other windows media files are out there anyway? Is it sort of over for Windows Media?
Windows Media® Components for QuickTime
Windows Media Player on Mac never really reached the highs of software enjoyment that Quicktime does. When Quicktime came out, in, I don’t know, 1980-something, I have to admit, I was sort of puzzled about what role video would have on the desktop, especially given that an 80MB hard drive was a big deal.
Apple’s foresight on this one has been incredible - there are so many applications of Quicktime in everything that I do with a Mac that I could not have forseen 17 or so years ago. But then again, that was 17 or so years ago. Score!
