Pirx, no offense but I think you're making TOO much of an issue on this. The only indefensible position on your part is attempting to put the blame on the software company. Yes, they did provide a direct means of downloading an application to "advertise" a newer version but as Yazsoft noted, it was in bold print. I see nothing morally wrong for them to actually promote a better version while making it optional. After all, even Apple has done so by making the user become aware of a new iLife suite but of course two wrongs do not make a right. The burden, however, would be on you to demonstrate that it is wrong. To people who like to know about new versions of speed download, would surely appreciate this notification. I think this is simply a matter of subjectiveness. Since Apple provides notifications, should you not be fair and stop using their products? Let's put it this way, if I am currently watching a DVD and it advertises part 2, and I buy it, would they be at fault here? It was completely optional and hence, it is quite defensible. To be honest, I haven't purchased Speed Download due to money issues but I don't think you're argument holds any water. A friend of mine, however, has had very good experience with their support and the application. Even if they did wrong, would it make sense to stop using a good application? |

I must say that this is a much needed addition to Quicktime. While VLC can play a lot of files, I must prefer the Quicktime GUI and it's much easier to use. In fact, there is a nice table of contents-like addition for .mkv files that makes me believe that it works better than VLC! If it was shareware, I would definitely buy this product...as this has become an application that I can't live without. Open source is the way to go!! As one suggested, it would be incredible to have Real Media play in Quicktime but as far as I'm aware, that doesn't seem very likely. I personally haven't encountered any problems with this application. |

Ok, great thanks for the tip! I do have a suggestion. Can you add the ability to search for videos without going through youtube.com? Take sherlock for example. It searches ebay without going to the website itself. That would be great if you could implement that. |

Would be nice to have the clips show in the application instead of having to go through the ugly youtube interface. The application is pretty nice except for having to run youtube in there. |

Don't use this application! I tried it and i restarted my comuter and it doesn't let me log in! I have tried every single way to make it work. I know the password is correct so i used my install disks and reset the password. Tried fsck and still didn't work. i also tried to boot in safe mode but still same password problem. My last solution is to reinstall os x and hopefully that works. |
