The whole iTunes for Windows was nothing but a stealthy way to get QT 
into the hands of the unwashed masses, IMHO.  This seems like a very 
clever way to generate market share using QT to drive a wedge through 
the WinTel monopoly.  I haven't been so excited since I embraced 
OpenDoc and Cyberdog, etc. Only time will tell if the strategy 
succeeds...

Regards,

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you...
