The thing about the new codec is that it is completely scalable at a single bitrate. For example you can push HD video to it at an acceptable speed so that the person could watch it as they were downloading it. It makes me wonder if Apple might offer some sort of movie database where you just pick what you want to watch and don't actually download it. That way, the issue with space on the hard drive is solved.
Are you serious? With new technologies making it easier and easier for any user to film and edit their own videos, space becomes extremely important. How much video is a mother capable of shooting? Anyone who has any video generally needs lots of space, not just those in the industry.
I'm a hardcore Apple user and hate Microsoft as much as the next guy, but not because they include features in their software. A feature of Windows is to be able to browse the internet with IE. Should we not include music players to play CDs? Should we not have built in graphics adapters on motherboards? Where do we draw the line? What seperates a monopoly from a feature of the product? I also noticed your Sig says you're a proud Safari user... Safari is bundled with Mac OS X. Just a thought.

Cannes doesn't give Oscars, you idiot. He won the Jury Award for Fahrenheit 9/11 and he will not win any Oscars for it. Why are people stupid?
