Any tips on watching quicktime that doesn't infect your computer with apples garbage? I'm not familiar with .mov files, but it seems I can't just download the file directly and play it with my menagerie of players capable of playing m4v's. Which is frustrating.

.mov is acting like some kind of meta-file to point quicktime in the right direction. The only string in the file worth noting is the name of the actual video file with the .m4v extension. Maybe it's storing an IP address?

Honestly I'd rather not go through all of this, if he had used a modern standard I would of being able to scrub through the file locally.
