Hmmm, no IMO they would use Quicktime format which is supported offically on
both of the mentioned platforms.

What is the playback of these video formts like for Linux BTW? Anybody here
know? You here all this stuff about future is Linux etc. etc. but do the
developers of these well used players etc. listen? Or do the Liux crowd
suffer (in parts) like us with clones not supporting all formats etc.? :-(
