Quicklook can also be used to listen to audio files... When you quicklook an audio file the playback will be paused if you switch to a different application on the Mac and then will resume when you jump back to the finder. Quicklook can also be used for HTML files in exactly the same way as PDF's. THis is fine for reading, but does not allow any editing and has only primitive controls.
