'FREE' maybe too generous a term: Flip4Mac is a bit like
Quicktime itself as part of it is Free - for capabilities
such as converting WMV files to Mac native ones one has to
pay for a license.

For tight-fisted types like myself there are other, FREE,
solutions to dealing with Windows Media files on both Mac
OS X and Mac Classic. So, I am not quite as excited by
Flip4Mac as some other people seem to be. I am always happy
when I can avoid having a Microsoft product on any of my
machines as I always have a funny feeling that they are
either gathering up info to send back to Uncle Bill or
doing odd things in the 'basement' of the computer.

Here are a few pointers:
