Nop, just the way we code and the language we use...

I have never thought of the media-api as used in MPLayer, VLC, Xine, 
whatever. I don't think we will try to push it that way neither.

Nop. That's one side of creation : copying the others. The other part is 
invention which rarely happens when you're just copying things and end 
up doing roughly the same thing... I think that we already achieved 
invention with Matroska because of the EBML concept behind it (binary 
XML with semantic and grammar separated and default values). That's an 
improvement over existing IFF formats (AVI, QT)...
