OK, I just bought a mac for the first time, iBook G4, the thing kicks ass, but i cant play any .wmv files on it, is there anywhere i can download Windows Media player so i can actually open these files? Im jsut curious because I heard recently the Microsoft was sued because they only allow microsoft operating systems to work with wmv files, and not on Mac. any help is appreciated. Thanks
Got a tip for us?

Well, there's Windows Media Player for Mac by Microsoft that'll play most things up to WMV 10 (not inclusive) and you'll need Stuffit Expander to extract the installer files.
Alternatively, look at VLC.
