Because somebody changed the "QuickTime Exchange" setting of QuickTime in
Mac OS 9 or simply didn't install the QuickTime web browser plug in.
Everything else are just some other user errors on the uploading side; in
particular there are a _very_ few web servers cleverly configured to send
files with the extension ".mov" as text.
Apart from that, all movie files are identical in format, and it is simply
wrong that QuickTime movie files won't play when put on websites:
In fact it has been a trivial thing to do all along, or how do you think
Eduard's movie at <http://mac.povray.org/art_artists/esp/3worldsmovie.html>
(dating back to 1995) is able to play on the web? It doesn't require a
magican or some odd tools to put a QuickTime movie up on the web. And it
definetly works on all the big free webspace providers.
