    Quicktime X is a really nice improvement over the old (free) quicktime. They added a lot of the features that were only present in the paid version. The UI is easy and beautiful and it works great. This is a great program.

    I loved this program on the Mac. However I find that it is almost useless on Windows.

    Quicktime X is a very good software. It runs almost everything I want to run. With Perian, this is a very good software that can level VLC or even better.

    Mixed feelings on what they have done with Quicktime between Leopard and Snow Leopard. You still need Perian if you want to watch various movies since Quicktime is limited on codecs. The interface is awesome but VLC still seems to be the movie app I gravitate towards.

    An awesome application for playing videos and music. It has a great, simple interface, and basic video editing features. Even has screen recording and voice recording included. ^^ (This is version 10 for OS X I'm talking about, I don't think the Windows version has been released yet, if it's ever going to be. =p )

    Using preference panes such as Perian and Flip4Mac allows you to use pretty much any video codec you need.

    About a year ago, after being a Mac user my entire life, I started using QuickTime Pro for simple editing tasks, like cropping a video or exporting it in a different size/format. I have to say, it gets the job done fast and it's really easy to use. I bet the majority of QuickTime users think it's just a playback application and have no idea what it can really be used for.

    I'm not a huge fan of the Windows port, but when downloading from Google video, there's nothing wrong with it. Ugly and dated interface for the port, not that it matters much.

    It's a great app if you have Snow Leopard. If anyone would like to say "it's shit" - then get off your fat arse and program something better than be an unproductive spoilt brat!
