Quicktime Trailers

[Lucas Holt]

The sound codec is probably the same used for the apple music store, 
mpeg 4 audio.  The big changes in the recent windows release was the 
sound codec already present on mac systems for iTunes 4.  If the 
openquicktime software doesn't have an apple style implementation of 
mpeg 4, you will be out of luck for most of those trailers.
