Hi, I found your article very informative. You are very knowledgeable. I have watched many videos using mplayer or xine on youtube. The flv formats are playable with players that use ffmpeg and it is legal. The hardest thing is actually finding the true link to the flash video but there are tools for this in debian. I also would like to add the icecat project is working towards a .xpi flash plugin using gnash but I don't know how he proposes to solve the software dependences of gnash. Seems like mplayer with ffmpeg would be the logical solution. While all you big boys are running systems at the speed of light I am still mostly terminal based. So the smaller and cleaner the code the better. I have three 64 bit systems (one alpha, one sgi mips, and one powerpc ) and they run better with really clean code in "c" as most 64 bit systems do. I would use a "free" alternative to anything offered by adobe. You are talking about your freedom. Thanks for your article. Try using mplayer from source if needed.
