Try this: Launch WMP 9, File->Open URL, paste in
<http://www.cnn.com/video/>, and see this message: "WMP cannot play this
file because the Player does not support this file format." So, complain to
CNN for using a format that WMP 9 for Mac can't read or complain to MS for
building a crappy WMP. It's not a Safari problem.
