According to Filext.com, .MKV is: Matroska Video Stream, and the official site is Matroska.org (http://matroska.org/). ;)

MKV files are generally used because they allow multiple audios (ie diff languages) , subtitles (different subtitle language), and chaptering info (Ability to jump to different areas of video). But they arent always used.
