ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

QuickTime Alternative

OK kiddo, so QuickTime is like a video player, kind of like how you play videos on your iPad or TV. But sometimes, when you want to watch a video, you don't want to use QuickTime because maybe it's not working, or it takes a long time to open up. So, there's a thing called QuickTime Alternative that you can use instead. It's like a backup video player that you can use to watch your videos. And guess what? You don't even need to download the whole QuickTime program to use it. QuickTime Alternative is just a smaller version that only does what you need it to do--play videos. It's like having a special toy that does one thing really well, instead of a big toy box with lots of toys that you don't even use. Hope that helps, kiddo!
