Is there a replacement tech for QuickTime, to show media content, when Windows Updates removes it one day ... soon?

Hi Harden,

Media On A Prim (MOAP) should be able to display HTML5 content. There will be sites that still serve QuickTime, Flash and Silverlight, but they're declining in number.

I'm happy to be rid of all those old technologies.

Things [software / Technology] you don't need on a Windows 10 PC anymore, period!

1) Adobe Flash - Replaced by HTML5

2) Apple QuickTime - Too many better media player technologies

3) Microsoft Silverlight - Replaced by HTML5

4) JAVA [Oracle] - No longer needed / used on PCs

5) Microsoft C++ Runtime Libraries older than 2010

If you just can't live without that old website still using Adobe Flash then install Google Chrome which embeds Flasn in a bullet proof sandbox that requires permission to run any Flash Media.
