I have the M3 too…:-)…and it plays flac, even flac 8…maybe you should update to the latest firmware? Should be found here somewhere:

Ok, I must admit that’s also what I do more often than not ;O) And as for Cowon: I own their iAudio M3 (ogg, but no flac, though) and am quite happy with it. Their new stuff looks very cool, too!

Yes, I know about QT Alternative…actually I’ve installed it and then deleted it but left the entries in the registry so I can play the mov-files vlc won’t play (sometimes it doesn’t play the sound) with jetaudio, which also plays real audio files. Jetaudio is made by Cowon, a company who also makes very good digital audio players with ogg and flac support.
If I really think a mov file is worth watching, I usually get the url of a mov file from the sourcecode or by clicking the Page Info button in Firefox and have a look at the list of the mediafiles on a page.
Anyway, I’m old-fashioned and prefer simple HTML and an option to download a media file :-)

Well, I don’t know if it helps with the SoundJunction page - which is great, btw - but have you ever heard of QuickTime_Alternative? It sometimes works with embedded movies, sometimes it doesn’t, but it makes a good piece of software together with the included Media Player Classic. (And, of course, there’s also RealAlternative, which I use to listen to BBC Radio 1 and everything else ;O))
