Apple Issues Brand New, More Secure Quicktime Media Software
Our Comments
A relatively minor update focused mainly on security. It still beggars belief that Apple has kept Quicktime alive after so long. The multimedia framework is 17 years old already, only slightly younger than MPEG and before Microsoft's own Video for Windows - which became "Windows Media Video" later. It has however lost pace lately and according to Google Trends, been surpassed as a leading video codec, surpassed by MP4, DiVX and AVI.
