You think too much.

Look at the groups name. I can not see something like this ugly wmv
format. You?

Put it in YouTube and send the link.


Three things

1 This group is FAR from dead - there's a great many posts (20-30 per
day - over one hundred every week).

2 .wmv is simply Windows Media - it will play on either the Windows Media
Player; DivX or Real Player.

3 Perhaps _you_ should look at the name of this group - it's a
multi-media (binary) group; videos are quite acceptable if they are
on-topic.

alt.binaries.pictures.aviation usually takes STILLs
alt.binaries.multimedia.aviation usually takes VIDEOs (& PDFs)

As you wrote, *most* users aren't too bothered if stills/movies/PDFs
appear in different newsgroups - I'm grateful that people will post.
Continetal Europe, I believe, is in a heatwave, so tempers may be short.
Britain appears to be trying to be accepting the rainfall deficit of the
Sahara - I was hoping for Fairford 'photos, but 'twas not to be.

The group is quiet, rather than dead, at least on my server - but we are
in the holiday season (which, across the continents, seems to spread from
June to September.)

I switched from OE to Pan as my newsreader because I got fed up with
piecing together posts, & then needing a separate utility if it had been
encoded (other than UUEncode). There are plenty of alternate newsreaders,
to satisfy different needs/tastes/OSs.
