And even if it does now run on 64-bit x86, a media playing system
might, perhaps, be ARM-based.
Here's a different real example: when Crossover was being used

Indeed. Do they even licence the relevant codecs?
I don't know they'd have to mention Crossover anyhow, since mplayer &
al will typically play Doze media in some fashion on ia32 if you snarf
the appropriate DLLs from Windows.
