Comments on: Featured Freeware: Miro

Stability problems are a thing of the past for Miro, and the signal is clear: get your favorite videos from CNET and other content providers, download torrents, and discover new favorites all from the same open-source video player/manager.

Both Mac and Windows?

I hate to break it to you but there is another OS in use on a few million desktops and laptops (not to mention the millions of server): it's called GNU/Linux.

Next time, make a little effort, please?

by srosenblatt April 7, 2008 11:32 AM PDT: Simplicius: I never intended to imply that Miro wasn't available for Linux. You're absolutely right that it does, I knew that it was, and it was nothing more than an omission on my part that Linux wasn't mentioned. Thanks for the catch!; Like this Reply to this comment

by only1miller April 9, 2008 7:27 AM PDT: I'll never understand the flaming that goes on around OSes. This is akin to sports fans slugging it out in a bar over a televised game. We all have our reasons for the OSes we use - they have their pros and cons and exist because they serve a particular market. Some markets are bigger (not better) than others. Developers know what's going on with the OSes out there - they don't need users (even power users) moaning and complaining that they're not being recognized. I'm sure, however, that they (and we) would appreciate CONSTRUCTIVE criticism when appropriate.

Thanks.; Like this Reply to this comment
