QuickTime 7.6 Is Ready!

posted in software news, by Codrut Nistor

You know what I hate about QuickTime? Its lack of support for additional media formats, that's what I really hate about it, especially since I like the way it handles those few formats supported, and I think Apple would do a great job by turning it into a more versatile product. Anyway, I am sure they won't make QuickTime play DivX files anytime soon, as they won't add support for losless formats to the iPods, either. OK, no big deal, let's leave these aside and talk about QuickTime 7.6 now, shall we?
