Of course I understand that QT has added '100s functions to the MAC OS'. That's NOT my point. My point is simply this: On a mac, open ANY file within ANY program (okay, make that 90% of the programs out there) and you can PASTE a QT movie into the file. That's it. Nothing else needed! I have several QT movies integrated into MSWord 5.0 documents. You're right, if IFF clipping is now implemented, then I should be able to CLIP one anim from lets say DPIV and PASTE it into Scribble! or somesuch program. But such a thing does not exist yet, and without it, we have now lost something in this DTP/DTV/MULTIMEDIA race with the other companies, a race which I think is very crucial to the Amiga's longevity. You and I may quibble over whether it is a big loss or a little loss, but I consider it rather important.
