Well i won't get into the whole Windows or Mac topic. ---  ;^)  But......

Yes. QT 7 is free. The incentive for Apple might be that newer free
stuff would encourage users to buy newer stuff to create with and
"keep up with the flow". I dunno.....

Regardless, QT player is it's pretty accesible. It has, in theory and
by todays standards, pretty minimal hardware requirements for both
Windows/Mac OS. (but not so minimal OS req. ! ) Not sure if install
would put plugins etc. in all types of browsers to deal with streaming
content, but as a stand alone playing downloaded files, it should work
fine.

The irony, I'm finding, is that I'd be better off creating web content
with older software. Pretty sure that would help as newer software
would be backwards compatible thus could deal with the content, and
users with older stuff could possibly see/hear it too.

Whoooo knows.  I do know I'm getting totally sidetracked, and am
getting this list sidetracked from VC. At least my hearts in the right
place creating what may be helpful stuff for other Vanangon owners.

For those curious about QT software,  (comes with iTunes in Windows version)
