Kind of on topic, but has everyone noticed how many media companies
(FOX news, Sony, ABC, etc...), are moving to Flash Video? The cost for
the encoders and streaming is a bit more pricey, but since most small
websites only offer progressive download, the cost is not an issue for
the little guys.
Some advantages are; it works on any machine flash works on, you have
unbelievable control over the presentation, and integration of the
video with the web page, people have a harder time stealing your video,
no special player needed as the player is Flash, and best of all, it
makes it through most corporate firewalls.
If the trend continues, we should start to see content delivery
companies (akamai etc...) offering FLV streaming at similar pricing as
other streaming content. We direct all of our clients in this
direction. And as soon as they see the kinds of presentations you can
produce when the streaming media can interact both visually and
programmatically with your web page they are usually sold.
