Are MPEG-1,2, and 4 really that different? I was assuming they were
variations on the same concept. Well, don't worry about it, you needn't
explain further, thanks =)

If more exactly, AVI is a subset of RIFF (which is THE container, BTW)
with... err, very high probability of presence of certain kind of chunks
('vids', for one, is present in 99.(9)% of them; you might run across some
AVI files w/o any video streams at all, or course...).

  They are variations of the same concept, but are completely different in
implementation.

Maybe some obscure software is capable of storing e-mails, word documents
and powerpoint presentations in AVI files. :-)
