Why shouldn't you use .AVI, or .MOV file formats for long animation sequences?

These formats are limited to 1000 frames, and will stop render at 1000 frames. Any frames after are lost.
These formats are limited to 5000 frames, and will stop render at 5000 frames. Any frames after are lost.
These formats produce image files, and are not capable of producing animation output.
These formats output to one file at the end of the render job. If there is an error during renders, the file is lost. therefore it's best to render individual frames, and then reassemble frames in Video Post.
3D Studio Max does not support either format.
