i don't argue with that, i argue against the belief that the real  
world (tm) is composed of hackers running unix.

furthermore, from a business point of view, windows media is the  
cheapest to serve (quality/bandwidth), so i'm happy they're not  
squandering my license money on crack-fueled hippy-approved half- 
baked solutions. especially when everyone can view windows media.
