Another day, another My First MPEG-4 story. It’s interesting that the author’s frame of reference is MP3 — the only thing he knows, probably — when something like QuickTime would be a far better starting point for helping readers understand what MPEG-4 is today and will be in the future.
Although the author says silly things like, “The MPEG-4 standard is the direct successor to MPEG-2” (their only similarity is in name), and “QuickTime… [is] “probably the most popular software media player” (it’s not, therefore Apple’s wholesale move to MPEG-4), there are a couple good quotes from my friends at the M4IF. | NewsFactor
