Anyways, the problems I'm seeing now is that MS has a strangle hold on some
websites in regards to playing back either audio or video. Some websites
offer either Windows Media Player or QuickTime, but not Real Player. And this
sort of limits the user or prevents the user from either listening or viewing
their content.
One example is http://www.allenorgan.com
On the Listen Music icon.

I really don't know what solution a Sun user has for this.


Do what I do: complain voiciferously to the sute's owner/management.
And/or deny them any advertising revenue by refusing to visit their
site.


Does the new Microsoft openness include the Windows Media File format?
Being unable to play those formats on Solaris is a major limitation.


Dave Uhring suggested this: Install mplayer from blastwave.org. Don't forget the
codecs from mplayerhq.hu.
