If any of you PC users are regulars at Apple Trailers (like me) and pissed that you can't see them awesome hi-def trailers in full screen mode (like I am), here's an alternative that's aptly named .....Quicktime Alternative. You are now free from apple's shackles and can enjoy trailers on your media center PC in their full 1080p glory thanks to free-codecs.com.

it will uninstall your QT and re-install the codec and give you access to QT using any media player of your choice. Full screen apple trailers are now a reality on the PC without having to pay for QT pro (take that.. apple!) The coolest feature is when you click on 720p and 1080p apple trailer links, it pops up and gives you many options. You can save it and it will rename to .hdmov and you can play it back using media center.
The site also has a Realplayer alternative (very useful for folks like me that find Real player mildly irritating).
