A QuickTime movie can actually be used to store both movies and sounds. A file with this extension could thus be either an audio file or a movie file. Both types are supported by many different platforms. Note though that there are several different versions of QuickTime files in use, and not all players will play all versions.

MOV is a file extension used by the QuickTime-wrapped files. The format was created by Apple Computer to work with multimedia files. Though MOV files are quite often found in the web, to play them on Windows computer one has to install an extra component or convert to other format. MOV is a container format and can contain video, animation, graphics, 3D and virtual reality (VR) content or text (for subtitles, for example).

The advantage of MOV files is the ability to contain abstract data references for the media data. That means that they can be easily edited - no need to rewrite all media data after editing.
