QuickTime isn't a file format, it's an architecture for supporting a variety of time-based media. That said, I wasn't trying to let Apple off the hook in this diatribe, although at least they are working with standards bodies like MPEG now. There are a number of QuickTime-supported formats that are open, and there are others that are not. |
