In all honesty, I don't have any use or great love for them either, but I don't find converting (or in many cases, simply extracting the h.264 content) to be overly burdensome given the *ahem* cost savings inherent in the format

I believe the only clear advantage to the MKV container format is better support for subs and chapter markings - at least that's what I get from the comparison here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compari...tainer_formats
Haha, touché.

And yeah, it ain't no thang to convert the stuff... I just get tired of downloading something and then finding out that it's wrapped inside an mkv container. It would be nice if people put the container in the nfo file. Then there wouldn't be any surprises.
