but video streaming. Yes, it is very-very bad idea to decode videos with an interpreted language player, but I have to say, that almost 90% of the videos on the net are now accessable through this way. (Think about Google Videos or Youtube.) And I want to see these videos...
It's also worth considering if "a version of flash player we could have" does even support them. You know, Flash isn't too "open" format (reverse-engineered efforts aside)
Actually I wonder if recent-ish version of mplayer can play those videos?
