"What follows is a list of the APIs that the current Linux Flash Player 9 development version is using. I debated whether it was appropriate to publish this information. Then I remembered that anyone who knows what they're doing should be able to figure this stuff out by themselves anyway once the final Player is released."

"While it would be nice for youtube and google video etc. to post their videos in a real video format (e.g. XviD/MP3), they don't. People still want to watch them. Therefore they need flash"
You can download xvid versions of videos on google from their player if not directly from the web. I think there is or used to be links on the right side of the page for that.

"Am I missing something important/revolutionary?
Yes. The important thing is: not everyone thinks the same things you do."
I would call internet revolutionary, not to some way of delivering homemade videos. You are giving it too much importance.

They don't "need" flash.
"Anyway I digress. You obviously knew all that. You're just being and ideological idiot. I expect you're deluded that linux is easy to use too."
Ofcourse I knew all that. It's just I prefer to download movies and series with bittorrent and watch that instead of homemade low-quality ones.
And I'm not an idiot. It happens that I see all this flash ads and sites polluting the web and I don't like it.
I find Linux easy to use for my needs. I don't expect most people to use it. In fact, I don't care if their PCs explode because of malware, as much as I don't get affected. Really, as much as I don't get affected I don't care what people does. I happen to care when I get affected by people's idiocy.
