In today's internet with a lot of high speed users, and cheap bandwidth? No.

However, you still get a lot of AOL type people who prefer WMV because they do not have to keep current on their codec's or d/l'g other players. So for the experienced, to the retards, WMV is a good option.

However, despite many popular beliefs. People will accept divx, xvid, or other encoding if you explain it upfront on your site, and provide some detail on how to update their shit. It doesn't scare people off IF you have good product, or what they are looking for.

In the end it comes down to your material first.
