2. It's got the worst codecs of any major video format. |
|
It's made by Microsoft. Whoops, I'm repeating myself.

3. If you are having trouble with Youtube and Google videos... |
|
then download the Flash plug-in. You can either go to the Adobe site itself or your browser may have link to where you can install the plug-in.
Otherwise, just download the needed codec at doom9.net.
The problem with WMV is that it isn't cross-platform friendly. If MS decides to not support the player or codec for other operating systems then those users are SOL. The Quicktime or .mov format works for everyone. :)
