    WTF?

    Considering Movielink is Windoze only, then could someone tell me why this info is on a Mac news site?

    Slow news day folks?

    WTF?

    Hey, could someone explain to me why I'd want to download a movie to my computer, and watch it on my puny 19" monitor???

    Why download

    Because I watch the movie on my laptop with the headphones on while my spouse sleeps. A 14" screen two feet from my face is the equivalent of a very large screen television, and the headphones deliver very good sound. It's not digital theater, but it's better than my TV.

    Of course, as long as they're Windows only, I won't be getting my films from MovieLink. Maybe Apple has an iFilms store in the wings that will showcase Quicktime's superiority...
