With apologies to Cesare, you guys need to be coming up with better arguments. Make that any arguments. soup, With all due respect, your arguments haven't exactly been all that compelling either. You're basically saying that Apple has this superior technology, and that QT4 (which, BTW, is a piece of beta software, and hasn't been released yet) is going to win. Well, Apple has been making the "we have superior technology" argument since 1984. They have 4% of the market. Wow. Chalk one up for superior technology. Am I worried about MSFT? Hell, yes. You'd have to be crazy not to be. Is Apple a worry? Sure, why not. I suppose they could somehow stop being a bunch of marketing idiots and actually put their technology (which is very good) into a lot of hands. But you still haven't outlined any real reason why RNWK is in trouble. They have consistently maintained 85% of the market. They find a new partner every other day. Their download rate is huge. They continue to reinvest in the company. They have met and/or beat estimates for six straight quarters. So far, sounds to me like they're doing what they need to do.
