QT Pro: Maybe higher price...

Apple may increase the price of the Pro version of QT

Maybe they'll have to pay a lot to use MPEG-4. So users may be charged more.

I have the QuickTime 6 Public Preview installed, and my QuickTime 5 Pro key works.

I have no idea if this will be the case with the final release, though.

Price...

Apple could probably get away with upping the price another $10 to $39.99, but any higher than that would be self defeating.
Being a content creator, QTPro is essential to what I do, but most people go without buying it.

I really hope my QT5 key continues to work after QT6 final comes out. Then again, I got my key courtesy of Apple for being a QT5 beta tester...

Apple has already stated that QT5 keys will only work for the preview. The final version of pro will be a piad upgrade to all who want it including existing users due to liscensing they have to pay. There is a url to a FAQ posted in the thread about its release.

Well it's not so bad after all

Well if it's the only way to bring us MPEG-4 so why not.

LOL what if Steve Jobs read this thread... he'll think "Oh okey they want me to increase the price? no problem..." .

I only need QT Pro to watch movies on fullscreen and to locally save qt movies which are embedded into webpages.

i don't understand why they can't include these 2 functions into the normal qt version (not pro).
