Apple Acquires Technology From Macromedia

07:29 p.m May 04, 1998 Eastern

CUPERTINO, Calif., May 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Apple Computer, Inc. (Nasdaq:

AAPL)  today stated that it has acquired technology from Macromedia, Inc.

(Nasdaq: MACR) to enhance future versions of its widely used QuickTime

software. The move is part of  Apple's efforts to make QuickTime the

industry standard for digital video authoring and  playback on personal

computers and over the Internet.



This PR wasn't very detailed.  Anyone know what technology they're talking

about?


Something to make QT3 stream decently perhaps?


BTW, someone from Real told me they have some major announcements of their

own coming up soon.  There could be a serious battle brewing between Real &

QT3.
