How can anyone not want VLC its like awesome or something, can play just about anything, even broken files. Anyhow heres the story :

"WHILE THE OPEN SOURCE video player VLC has been doing well among Windows and Linux fans, it seems that Apple won't list the player on its downloads site.

Mac fanboy websites were cheering that the open source VLC project on the Mac seemed to be in trouble with the number of Mac developers "reported to have dwindled to zero."

Apparently they thought it meant that Jobs' Mob would be able to force users to run its Quicktime player.

The VideoLAN Foundation said that the Macolytes have "greatly exaggerated" the situation, but admitted that the current graphical interface "is not being maintained at this time."
