message: I removed that bit about Quicktime being difficult to obtain without iTunes bundled. If you go to their website, the download link to the standalone version is as visible/prominent as their bundled download. Also, citing public reviews and personal blogs seem to be frowned upon based on my assessment of the situation over at Real Alternative's talk page. I've added a citation needed tag.--67.168.0.155 04:22, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Are the overly intrusive installation and tendency to leave components behind on uninstall problems with QuickTime Alternative, or with the official QuickTime software? The article doesn't make it very clear. CarrerCrytharis 00:25, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

message: QT seems to hog the cpu, driving the cpu to 100% even on fast modern Windows PCs.  If QTA is better about cpu usage, that would be Notable.

thread_title:  Last Paragraph 

message: I have semi-protected this article for a nominal period of 1 month because people are revert warring about which site (codecnews.com or codecguide.com) is the official site for this codec. Initially I wasn't sure which was the right site, but upon examining Alexa data, I see that codecnews.com has no traffic data, compared to codecguide.com which is around the 6000th most-visited site on the internet. This clear disparity suggests that codecnews.com is a domain registered to cannibalise on the traffic to codecguide.com, and is not the official site. A check of the WHOIS data on the domain confirms that it was registered in October 2008, compared to August 2004 for codecguide.com. In light of this, and without any references in favour of codecnews.com being the "official site", I am treating any link changes to codecnews.com as spam, and reverting accordingly. If the semi-protection is ineffective to prevent this spam, I will fully protect the article from editing. - Mark 13:40, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Spam and revert war over "official site" 

message: QuickTime Alternative 1.90 was the last version with support for Windows 2000.
This old version is still listed on the main codecguide website, and can be downloaded from FileHippo, along with lots of other old versions.
filehippo.com/download_quicktime_alternative/3188/
But QT Lite 1.90 is also  the last version with support for Windows 2000.
It is not listed anywhere, and cannot be downloaded anywhere.
Which is frustrating, and nuts.

thread_title:  Windows 2000 - v1.90 

message: Greetings, everyone.
I've temporarily changed the operating system support statement into "Microsoft Windows" only, because last statement — "Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 2008 and 7" — had some problems:
* First: It lacked citation from a reliable source.
* Second: It contradicts Features new to Windows 7#Format Support and Windows Media Player 12 articles. They state that Windows 7 natively supports playing QuickTime .MOV files.
* Third: The history section says QuickTime Alternative no longer supports Windows 2000.
So, unless you get a reliable source that says exactly which version of Windows are supported by QuickTime Alternative or QT Lite, please No original researchs and no conclusions or personal opinions.
