MOV is an MPEG 4 video container file format used in Apple's QuickTime program. MOV files use Apple's proprietary compression algorithm. Apple introduced the MOV file format in 1998. The files saved in this format are compressed and thus they are easy to download as well as stream.
The file format specifies a multimedia container file which contains one or more tracks, all of which store different types of data, which might include audio, video, text, subtitles or video effects. Each MOV file track contains a digitally encoded media stream which uses a specific format. On Windows systems, programs that open MOV files include QuickTime Player, Roxio Creator, Cyberlink Power Director and PowerDVD, and Adobe Flash.
