Mac Attack

Okay...I just got my first (intel) MAC.

Yes, I know...I'm a Microsoft focused boy that grew up on Microsoft Bob.

That aside....
Any tricks to play EMBEDDED streaming (non protected) videos on the MAC? (OS X)?

All the MAC browsers want a "plug in" and I can't find a plug in for MAC. I have the flipformac, latest quicktime, VLC, media player 9. I still can't make them play well if at all.

My hope is to find a better way we can use embedded streaming to reach the MAC base. (using .wmv)

Also, any other hints or tricks when it comes to MAC would help.

When all else fails I use the Mac in XP and VISTA mood.
Evil things to do to a MAC but it works for the sites we have DRM protection on.

If you have quicktime pro installed it should work.

Here are a few sites that are rather helpful.
I've been able to ask Mac questions and get really good replys.

Targeting Mac users with WMV is like selling jewelry to a cow.

Offer your Mac members MOV or QT files that play in browser, or even better yet AppleTV, iPod or other H.264 encodes that they can plug right into their iTunes and then they can go off with iJerkoff with ease.

Forget about trying to stick WMV on MAC users, in my experience its better to offer both WMV and QT to satisfy both markets.

If you have QT Pro, you should have no problem streaming
