That made a lot of sense when the files were in the .nuv format and 
Windows had no way of viewing them natively.  Now that the 
recordings are .mpg, serving them through VLC (for streaming) or 
http (for downloading) is probably more practical.  It shouldn't be 
neccessary to treat Windows clients differently from everyone else.
