why do you all hate Quicktime so much? the software is good, quality vs file size is awesome, and has better performance than DivX (i can watch quicktime movies just fine on my comp, divx's always stutter and you cant fast forward it)
i cant think of anything wrong with it

The quicktime format is nice, but the player eats ass. It doesnt stream worth shit and has a horrible interface. The new real media formats are awesome. They are small and have awesome visual/audio quality.
